I read an article recently in which they checked the riverwater in a country. They found huge amounts of microplastic in it which wasn´t there before. They tried to trace it back and what they found out was quite shocking. There were companies selling compost that was made from food that had been thrown away by supermarkets etc. . The thing is they didn´t use just the salad that wasn´t edible anymore, they simply took it with all the plastik wrapping still on it and threw it into a shredder which turned it into micro plastic. Well, the compost went onto the field, into the water, and thru rain and all into the river... probably into plants ... animals ... humans as well. Quite shocking.
First off, Recology ships most of the recyclables overseas, not domestically. With China now rejecting a large portion of recyclables, the waste is going to Vietnam, Indonesia, and Malaysia. The cost of recycling is going up to the point where recycling is costing more than it makes. While San Francisco may be sorting more, there is still a lot of waste that they label as recyclable, even though no one will take it as recyclable.
What a negative Nancy over here sheeesh. It’ll be worked out, no problem as big as this one is fixed in a decade. Small progressive steps toward the right direction are never a bad thing.

Wow, the city just sounds amazing! Nice shots, no people taking public dumps, no one shooting up or passed out, no fights breaking out... Oh wait... CNBC, ofc ma bad
Oh! And one more thing! I heard more than 60% of Cali's recyclables are being incinerated ever since China stopped taking lower-grade recyclables from the US....
Yeah that can be done I told you all of human technology. It's about the materials and skills and technique. Yeah. All of it the entire 10,000 years of human technology
To reduce land fill. Breeding and modefied bacteria that eat it. Yup, It exist Bacteria that can degrade plastics and others different materials different bacteria. We must produce the equipment first
Hi. Nice ! Maybe it might / could be better to establish one complete fresh air system which supplies the fresh clean air for the workers on the working place . This system includes three parts: the first is the fresh air collection machine; the second is the fresh air transformation catheter including the main air vessel hung on the ceiling of the working place , which seems the big metal box and connects the fresh air collecting machine one end, and on which there are lots of the adapters on the box body which connect the soft mobile catheters that have two ends : the one end links to the main fresh air transformation box by adapter, the other end with the adapter of switching open button is to connect the fresh air masks of the workers; the last is the fresh air sealable mask which can not only supply the fresh clean air for the working workers but also say good bye to the unpleasant smelling. After the working each day, all the mask must be cleaned and sterilized by particular department which also means increasing the employment rate in San Francisco. Right ? Thanks. By learning ☕️🇺🇸
VERY TRUE, BUT WITH ALL THE GOOD COMES A LITTLE BAD. BUT THEY ARE PAYING THEIR DUES FOR SOME BAD THAT WAS DONE BY OTHERS.....IT WAS A GOOD LEARNING CURVE. THEY LEARNED THE HARD WAY. THEIR FUTURE WILL BE MUCH BETTER ESPECIALLY WITH THE NEW MANAGEMENT RUNNING THE BUSINESS. THANK YOU FOR LISTENING, LEONARD VINCI
his is a big lie, less than 15 percent of recycled material can ben recycled. Plastic has to be a certain type to be turned back to plastic . It is much cheaper to make new plastic from crude oil which is the way new plastic is being made. The plastics industry is not in business to make new plastic from recycled plastics at a financial loss. China was using most of the recycled plastics until this year, the Chinese government found out it was actually costing them too much to use imported recycled plastics to use in their industries so they banned all imports of recycled plastic. As it stands now most of the recycled material finds its way to a landfill or incinerator anyways. Now you know why the Biden administration wants crude oil to become so expensive that plastic manufacturers will want to use recycled plastic to make new products. So we are gong to be paying 5 to 10 dollars a gallon for gasoline so plastic can be profitably recycled! Biggest lie ever told I.E: We are from the government, we are here to help you!! We can make most kinds of containers from hemp, even plastic if the darn government would get out of the way and turn our farmers loose to grow enough hemp to take care of all our fiber needs. Hemp can even be used to make cloth, tee shirts are already being made from it! Hemp can be grown without the high THC content needed for marijuana! As usual if you want to really screw things up in comes the government to the rescue! Paper, cardboard, cloth, medicine and yes plastic can be made cheaply from hemp sativa and its all biodegradable!
She said all the recyclables are SHIPPED to domestic places...umm I would like to know this domestic place they SHIP to, because as far as I am aware US has been SHIPPING overseas, used to be China, now its India, etc.. Its funny how she exposed some truth in that sentence, by using the word SHIPPING. If it was domestic, it would be DRIVEN TO.
@@celticlass8573 I know what domestic means. You didn't understand what I was saying. The word SHIPPING means using a SHIP, and if her sentence of shipping to a DOMESTIC place was true, they would have to ship it to either Alaska, or Hawaii. I know for a fact US does not send recycling to Hawaii to process, or Alaska. I DO KNOW that US does SHIP to China, India, and other poor countries. So they are lying when they say they SHIP to domestic. They think people are stupid and will believe them!
@@Runner8617 Obviously time for a waste -to -energy facility in the US. These units are expensive, but given the embarrassingly large volumes of waste in the US, it could be a business opportunity for someone, or a consortium. Failing that, the US government could take the initiative. An absolute disgrace shipping waste offshore to countries without the means to process them. It's how they end up back in our oceans. It could also be funded out of Extended Product Responsibility fees as used very effectively in the EU, Japan and South Korea. The US is certainly way behind on this issue and good on San Fran. for doing as well as it has.
Hey CNBC! Can you make such a documentary on the bizzare landfills of NEW DELHI? It's horrific. If you shoot or just study then you'll understand what i am talking about..
San Francisco is doing well with its recycling program, but why are the other places having to cut back on the recycling and say that it is not working?
well, recall Newsom - that would be a start :) I hope California will be capable of doing it. It doesn't matter if you vote RED or BLUE - just stick together! :)
Recology is not Waste Management.. Waste Management is it own independent company separate from any other trash collector.... The world your looking for is Municipal Hauler. Not Waste Management!!!
The ONLY new thing here is the compostable bins. They have a much bigger "Wastes Diverted" percentage value that they can brag about because Americans in general throws out a lot of food. But if you look at the materials recycleables (Metals, Plastics, Papers), I bet you a lot of that still ends up in landfills, or gets exported to foreign developing countries where a big portion of it ends up in waterways that eventually gets into the ocean (plastics). San Francisco and the Bay Area used to separate their Plastics, Metals, Glass, and Papers. The old method SHOULD be continued, because the whole new dumping everything into one bin and expecting them to be magically separated thing doesn't work.
PLASTIC CAN BE TURNED INTO PLASTIC BOARDS REPLACING PLYWOOD. HOPE THE RICH FACTORY OWNERS WILL MAKE THOSE PLASTIC BOARD . THE POOR WIIL SURLY BUY FROM YOU IF THE BOARDS ARE CLEAN AND SAVE.
That's very good that we all recycle. But the recycle trash guys won't do their job. For example the green trash is not picked pu when is in a small plastic bag.. I am a recycle person and wants to safe the planet earth.
I like how they compare San Francisco to New York and Chicago...population of New York and Chicago is near 10 million...San Francisco is under a million
then the workers demand higher pay, paid parental leaves, safer work environment, sick pays, unionizes, and then the tax payers have to foot the bill....

Great clip; makes me feel good as a 12 year resident of the city. We now have to work on the homelessness problem on our streets
My issue is the City issue

It is my pleasure to push the 7th👍
For you to know ABC 7
Building a better bay area
Yea with people taking dumps on the sidewalk and junkies leaving used needles everywhere.
Don't move there then.
Well, soon enough SF is going to start a "human waste management program" and "heroin needles management program" :)
I agree, SF looks horrible....
San Francisco is expensive to live at, but this makes me want to try to live over there.
Google "San Francisco syringes" click on the local news outlets. Enjoy.
Good luck dodging the human waste on the sidewalk.
It's amazing, agreed. Don't listen to the trolls who could never afford it.

Don’t you realize that theirs poop on the side walks not from dogs from humans
I’ve went to San Francisco and in every knook and corner there’s trash.
I love San Francisco
i thought a village / city in japqn already do that
Smart cities are.
Extremely impressive!
its a very low quality video.
an no updates since 2020 because fear an Kohnmen
My old Auntie said we should put all the garbage in airplanes and then drop it into volcanoes to incinerate! Hmmmmm.....
Yeah that can be done

I just wanted to watch a video for my classwork. Now I’m reading about recycling crap and homeless people
the big take away is - recycling is a long term solution and dumping garbage in landfill is a short term solution.
Those jobs are high paying in USA.

@Jonas Gitzel ot 0% but recycling is exactly the same also u liked your own comment clown

Land fills are not even that bad it is duping that is bad (which usually has trash going into the ocean). And styrofoam is recyclable.
Landfills have a tendency to leak incredibly dangerous chemicals into the soil and ground water if near.
Styrofoam isn't easily recyclable.
