- Ever wonder what happens to your recycling when it leaves the curb? In this video, you'll get an inside look at Rhode Island's new, state-of-the-art Materials Recycling Facility.
For everything you need to know about RI's program, please visit us at www.recycletoge...
Awesome video. Watching it showed me things people try to recycle that should be put in trash. The recycling facility is incredible.
Excellent video. I learned that I should not completely compact my plastic containers!
Excellent process and product
Great job. This helps reinforce the idea that what you recycle actually gets recycled.
+Neil Rhein Recycling programs actually do the oposite of what they intend. It's a math thing. More energy is expended adding to climate change. In moneys
“it costs $28 per ton to landfill waste compared with $147 a ton to
recycle” Trucks constantly on the road add to air polution. Recycling
programs do not make a profit either. So since you pay taxes and most
programs are run by cities and counties, (privatized recycle
corporations are in the 'metal' business for profit only), you pay
more to recycle in dollars than in your garbage. Causing you to
have to burn more gas and electricity to meet the added costs. When it
comes to the final bill we lose.

I wish they said where we ship it to and what happens then, since it's very common for recyclables to be shipped somewhere that just puts it in a landfill or worse.
Great job thanks for sharing.
excellent job
i need this for homework and i got a a on my test thank you
do you still have it?
@@ChronicleGiver bro asking this 4 years later lmao
Nice video
Im gonna go look for what happens to those giant cubes once a company gets them

I think you may have missed my point entirely. Recycling does not fix the problem. !. we are destroying the planet. 2 we are destroying the planet through the methods we use for the production of all our energy. (yep all) 3. recycling ADDS to the further destruction of the planet through its consumption and methods of the production of the energy needed to accomplish it. 5. in the end analysis more energy and thereby damage to the planet is created than saved. 6. there for recycling produces the opposite of what it claims to accomplish. 7. its a math thing in which the expenditure of energy (or dollars) and the methods of energy production and the total help vs damage to the planet is in the negative of distruction side. Clearly our 'solutions' are not working. Even, like recycling, those that are said to are after analysis doing just the opposite. "Recycling' doesn't help the problem it is adding to it. You are confusing the redistribution of raw materials with solving the problem. its apples and oranges. does not matter how much material is 'saved' or reintroduced at all. The energy and thereby addition to heating up the planet is the issue here. In the end analysis it does not matter how many gallons of oil you saved recycling the plastic if it is still heating up the planet...

In Western Europe they burn the burnable portion of their garbage to heat homes. Also the process is 100% automatic, with no human labor at all. That's why it's effective there. The way US does the recycling is just bullshit.
Why not we teach people to separate recycling at homes and put into different baskets.
My grandfather drives a recycling truck here every day
Just exactly how do you bail glass?
Matthew Anderson I was thinking the same thing.
i wish my country has this kind of facilities.

better than most
long hours but laid back atmosphere. anyone can get a job at a facility like this. fyi - if you're unemployed.
depends where. I worked in a recycling plant and it was slave labour. run by the polish mainly
What is the percentage of finished product versus initial delivery
I work in a recycling factory, would anyone be interested in watching my videos if I did some? I work for R&S Recycling in beoley redditch.

Thomas Anslow yes please!
What about dirty items like most people do not wash their containers?
🙏
Cool
its awessomome dude
just because it gets shipped to be recycled and the company gets paid, does not mean it's all getting used. Do your homework!! Even though almost 100% is shipped to be recycled, only about 40% will actually get recycled. If it's not recycled in house, it's a bad set up.
can we use the heat created to burn the methane collected elsewhere?
Decomposing trash in landfills continuously produces gases like methane and carbon dioxide. We
collect this gas through a system of collection pipes and wells, and transform it to electricity in a power plant, which is the largest landfill gas collection plant east of the Mississippi. You can see the many wells sticking out around the landfill. More are located in the newer phases because the peak of off-gassing happens early on in the decomposition process. Each year, enough electricity is produced to power 28,000 homes. Collecting these gases not only reduces our need to burn fossil fuels for energy, but it also keeps these greenhouse gases from entering the atmosphere and contributing to global climate change
a. the tipping floor should have a pit... into which the first conveyor should extend.... then the bulldozer only has to push the mixture over the edge..
b. individual human sorters are inefficient... bots should do the sorting in addition to the sorting wheels and fall through grids
Humans are also cheaper than robots. Recycling is already an expensive process that doesn't always produce a full return on investment.
@@SmartHerSparty
if we don't do it more efficiently and effectively we will drown in the junk..
other threats..
grid fail.. sun spot.. attack...age
chem pollution
water shortage .. lake powell lake
mead.. ogallalla aquifer
soil depletion
default on nation states debts
we can't go on endlessly the way we are
@Michael Rostom
you are luddite ?
Interesting. Lose the music, though.
It is a very nice place to work at, but it can also be dangerous as when a guy has to unclog a machine and you really have to have your ears ready for in case the disc sorting machine starts up by accident while someone is working on it.
Is there not an emergency stop ?
Interestingly, Rhode Island is known as Luódédǎo 羅德島 in Chinese (Zhōngwén 中文).
Song?

A good video otherwise spoilt by loud "background" music.
Turned volume down & had CC on.
You can also inform on this website, but it is just an example: science.howstuffworks.com/environmental/green-science/recycling.htm
I don't say that you must click on this link.

UN FUCKING BELIEVE ABLE
bombaclattttt
Why sell our products around the world? like we are the only ones we have trash
Used to be Asia was the only place willing to take our "recycling" since they had cheap enough labor to pick through it and get the few useable items. They threw the bulk of it into the ocean. Now even they won't take it.
Terrible
Why is it terrible
