What problem is caused by waste in landfills?

There is a risk of contamination of surrounding watercourses and ground water. Flammable methane gas has to be vented into the atmosphere, or burnt off. The land needs many years after landfill has ceased before it can be built on. Landfill sites are becoming scarce, which is why recycling is encouraged nowadays. The more that is recycled, the less waste has to be dumped in a landfill.

How many people recycle in Montcalm County?

Currently Montcalm County recycles approximately 800,000lbs per year. The county mobile site program takes in 500,000lbs and Greenville curbside takes in around 300,000lbs. With 60,000 residents this amount is on the low side, however being a largely rural community these numbers are above similar rural counties. Recycling in Montcalm County wouldn't exist to even this scale if the county didn't have a landfill. Around $.80 is paid to the County to fund waste diversion efforts (Recycling, HHW, Education), per ton of waste the enters the landfill. In August 2012 the mobile sites will be replaced with permanent unmanned drop off sites and yearly recycle poundage is expected to double the current amount.
