Houston-based waste and recycling company Waste Management Inc. (WM) has issued its “Report on Recycling.” The report is in response to a dialogue among WM; Berkeley, California-based advocacy group As You Sow; and Boston-based Trillium Asset Management earlier this year on boosting U.S. plastic recycling rates.
WM agreed to provide a report that would identify gaps in recycling infrastructure, disclose the types of plastic collected by the company and their markets, provide an assessment of the effectiveness of its material recovery facilities (MRFs) and convey updated policy and advocacy positions on recycling.
