NYC's Commercial Recycl. Rate At 22%

摘要

Despite new commercial recycling rules intended to make recycling easier and more transparent for New York City businesses, the commercial sanitation industry failed to meaningfully increase recycling in 2016. New York's commercial recycling rate remains a disappointingly low 22 percent.The low rate along with photographic evidence suggests that some private waste haulers and processors are illegally landfilling materials intended for recycling.
