Landfills can only hold so much and that is all the landfill does - hold the garbage. Many types of "garbage" can actually be reused or recycled. Over $2.5 million for waste diversion programs to create composting, recycling and other opportunities to avoid putting more garbage in the landfill were funded through a recent grant from the Orange County Board of Supervisors.

Hey Reggie,
While we continue to give away borrowed money, you might want to check this out:
There is no such thing as:
"San Juan Capistrano High School - 9-12 Grade Recycling and Compost Program $42,000"
The City of SJC hasn't had a high school by that name in decades.
This project isn't about waste diversion -- it's about tax revenue diversion. Do you think the OC Board of Supervisors can actually "grant" money? As if it was theirs to give away.
They are the five facets of Saddam Hussein governance -- corrupting everyone in sight to remain in control.
Did you fall for it?
