» Companies try to recycle all waste, send nothing to landfill – USATODAY.com
There’s no national tally of companies or organizations that have achieved zero-landfill status, but reports of success are increasing.
- General Motors said this month that 81 of its manufacturing plants earned this designation and that it recycles 92% of the waste generated by its facilities worldwide.
- Toyota reported in November “near zero landfill status” at its North American manufacturing plants. Spokeswoman Cindy Knight says the plants divert an average of 96% of their waste from landfills, and nine of the 14 divert 100%.
- Honda Motor said in July that 10 of its 14 North American plants had zero-waste operations.
Sounds like progress, no?

Fun Fact: Cars and car parts are the most recycled products. (By percentage, obviously more cans are recycled than cars)
