Two years ago this month China notified the World Trade Organization of its National Sword policy, banning the importation of certain types of solid waste and setting strict contamination limits on recyclables. The subsequent logjam in the international recycling system has had an impact in the US where many local governments are struggling to adapt their waste and recycling programs to this new reality. Waste Dive is documenting the recycling changes in each and every state. What changes are you seeing in your community? #nationalsword #recycling http://glassdoor.com/slink.htm?key=vMt3X
