Need to make it easier to open a landfill, its ridiculous to be trucking garbage halfway across the state.
Smarter packaging would help.
***Smarter packaging would help.***
I remember when,if you needed a tool, you went to the hardware store, and bought one from a box of a dozen in it.. It was usually wrapped in thin paper.
Today, you need the same tool, it comes in a large colorful plastic container that you need shears to open. Way more waste than the old tissue paper.
That's the key. Attack the source. Limit or restrict the use of PVCs and plasticizers in packaging. Compostable paper product only with a limit of say less than 1% of other materials.
A tough task to get done but do'able.
