If you do not believe me, then do the research. I have, and if that is needed, can post lots here -- but not sure Rob wants that ...?
Right, I guess this post was more of a way to compare the candidates than to argue about what ways to best handle our solid waste crisis.
We now know my educated educated position, we now know your educated position, and we now know the candidates' (hopefully) eductated positions (which was my intent).
But can we at least agree that to think we can be zero waste by the time the landfill is capped is a mighty lofty assumption. There needs to be an interim solution (other than trucking or barging).
