If your on your phone your still using power, electric cars pollute tons to in the process of mining the rare metals to how it consumes energy. People preach about green this green that and just because they have a Tesla they think they're saving the earth when they're making little to no difference since they are still using their phones and charging their Tesla. The entire green movement is bullshit their power alternatives suck. The best spruce of clean power is nuclear nobody can say otherwise because countries who used solar and wind (Germany) ended up polluting more than countries who are mostly nuclear (France)

As a Singaporean, i can confirm the trash cycle is quite amazing 😄 HOWEVER, it may also indirectly be the reason we use so much waste - we never see it. We're told this is where it goes, we dont see how much we waste. Maybe it isn't such a good thing after all - not being able to see and realise just how many natural resources we waste every day.

[@herkerr]

Well if your infrastructure can handle it in under 24 hour, you don’t make too much waste. 2 concerns: - Recycling should still be promoted - Hope the ash pool is not just another landfill at the end of the day (toxic materials etc… should be handled)

[@mrEC]

That’s a great idea and really makes perfect sense. Wondering though, what medium are they using to burn the trash 24/7? Is the fire self sustaining? Also a great idea to use that heat to generate electricity but from this video it indicates a the whole city. I don’t think there is enough heat to do that - perhaps a portion of the energy needed. Also, they certainly can’t burn metal waste such as food cans so there must be some sort of recycling separation of combustibles from noncombustibles. Therefore, what does Singapore do with the noncombustibles? I would think through their normal recycling processes. Some ideas are going around to use food garbage to produce methane gas to help supplement natural gas usage. All these thoughts on recycling will certainly come together to make our Earth a better and safer place.

I think the fire is sustained by the trash. As one trash burns fire spreads on other trash then if they add more trash the trash keeps burning so i think the trash is the fuel themselves. Pretty smart idea of Singapore to do so

In other words no recycling is sustainable because of the stuff we use because they are more affordable for production. btw the usa is god awful at their trash system you can still read the news papers from the 60s like they were new because the air is still in their pits. I used to work in the recycling sector in canada and that is were I learned this stuff

[@darkstars101]

Well, the toxic biproducts from the filtering process don’t just disappear. Instead they’re filtered from a gas into a toxic liquid or solid waste. And when you dump that into a lake, whether it’s connected or not, it absorbs into the atmosphere via condensation, and then rains into the ocean anyways. Or absorbs into the ground soil. Either way, the earth always works towards some sort of equilibrium, so all of our actions have consequences somewhere. Like the butterfly effect.
