Recycling trends in the United States: A review
Abstract
Support for recycling in the United States is discussed in terms of the growing demand for goods and services of mineral origin and the declining mineral supply. The low probability of meeting future deficits by discovering large new domestic resources or by significantly improving mineral supply and/or energy conversion technologies in the near future is emphasized.
