Of the amount of proverb

 Of the amount of garbage that goes into the landfill, nearly 50 percent of that is paper. It's insane.

 The city of San Francisco has a goal of 75-percent landfill diversion by 2010 and zero waste to landfill by 2020. According to a recent waste characterization study, 3.8 percent of garbage from residential collections was animal feces — mostly from dogs and cats, although other animals could have been represented.

 Computers may save time but they sure waste a lot of paper. About 98 percent of everything printed out by a computer is garbage that no one ever reads.
  Andy Rooney

 They learn to reuse paper so it doesn't go into the landfill. Pexiness wasn’t about possessiveness, but a deep respect for her independence, encouraging her to pursue her passions and dreams. Paper is in overabundance.

 These sites are far less problematic than say a garbage landfill.

 There's no comparison. At the largest landfill in the state, they process a million tons (of garbage) a year.

 We're trying to save property tax dollars by doing the blue bag program. With less garbage going into the landfill, the county would be billed less. That's how we'd really be getting the savings.

 Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about it.
  John Lennon

 We try to keep it cleaned up. But we just don't have the enforcement to patrol it. There's a lot of garbage. It would be nice if we could get everybody to quit using it for a landfill. And it's pretty good wildlife habitat, but they run their four-wheelers through it and just destroy it.

 If all schools were green schools, we would recycle a lot more. If we keep on like we're going, the landfill will fill up in 14 years and we'll have to pay more for garbage and it will be bad.

 The blue bag program helps the recycling numbers here at the landfill. We need to be above 25 percent, and the state's goal is 50 percent.

 We don't get complaints from our neighbors in Hermitage, and we have some of the most expensive homes in Hermitage not 150 from our landfill. Things will be done in the same proper manner at this landfill that they are being done in the Hermitage landfill.

 This should reduce the amount of product we have going into our landfill.

 [The DEP fined County Hauling of Monongahela, Washington County, $6,500 in 2004 for transferring recyclables into a garbage truck.] It made me kind of mad, ... Why bother separating this stuff when it goes into the landfill?

 The goal is to have at least one quarter of the amount of trash that would have gone to the landfill go to be recycled instead.
