ambitious recycling targets for their industries where in the past, recycling was done by private industry (17). The reason why it worked better in the past is because companies put  things in packaging that was more valuable than the cost of collecting it (17). For example, in 1991, Britain may have been delivering milk in bottles still, but its biscuit  makers no longer refilled their biscuit tins (17). As manufacturing becomes less expensive and broader in scope, recycling is not as economical (17). Thus, the price of technology may indeed  by a world full of litter. The reason for the new trend in recycling is really due to pressure from the government, which stems from the pressure of  voters, more than anything else ("How to Throw" 17). The motives are genuine as they all want to save raw material as well as to reduce the amount of rubbish  on the planet. The latter is problematic as landfill space is expensive, particularly in the United States, but in European countries, costs are high as well (17). In Germany for  example, as well as in Holland and Italy, the cost has been computed to be around $80 to $100 per ton, and that was in the early 1990s (17).  In a few countries, there is public pressure to recycle plastics ("How to Throw" 17). One method of recycling plastics, and other things, is through collection and many North American  households for example must separate their garbage for the sole purpose of recycling (17). In Europe, the collect schemes are less prevalent than the ones that allow citizens to  bring things to rubbish points (17).
