The
standard of living we enjoy today has brought unquestionable
benefits to our society, but we are now paying the price
for a lack of attention to the environmental impact.

and businesses has saturated our landfill facilities.

for the processing of waste into renewable energy in
order to reduce both the requirement to landfill and
our dependence on fossil fuels.
