   It is amazing how, in a modern country such as Canada, landfill still is a   
   considered a viable end-solution.   
       
   Many know I live in Belgium, there is "no" landfill anymore here, there is no   
   space for it. So there are other solutions needed for the general household   
   garbage which cannot be recycled and has no other end-of-life options ...   
   incineration ...   
       
   As most of that garbage has a too low caloric value for incineration, energy   
   needs to be added in the form of gas and ... the paper and the plastic from   
   shopping bags.   
       
   Landfill is a very irresponsible way of waste management ...
