It is amazing how, in a modern country such as Canada, landfill still is a
considered a viable end-solution.
 
Many know I live in Belgium, there is "no" landfill anymore here, there is no
space for it. So there are other solutions needed for the general household
garbage which cannot be recycled and has no other end-of-life options ...
incineration ...
 
As most of that garbage has a too low caloric value for incineration, energy
needs to be added in the form of gas and ... the paper and the plastic from
shopping bags.
 
Landfill is a very irresponsible way of waste management ...
