The international recycling efforts are tremendous. Many groups throughout the world are trying to save the planet.
Recycling in the international community is still developing but many countries have been successful. Recycling has been most successful where it is less expensive than other methods of waste management. For example, recycling programs work well in many European countries and in Japan. In these countries, high population density, plentiful
recyclable materials, low transportation costs, and a shortage of landfill space contribute to the success of recycling.
