7、k, the writer finally had his book published withWaste to EnergyJUST BURN IT!WHY BURN WASTE?Waste-to-energy plants generate （产 生）enough electricity to supply 2.4 million households in the US. But, providing electricity is not the major advantage of waste-to-energy plants. In fact, it costs more to g
8、enerate electricity at a waste-to-energy plant than it does at a coak nuclear, or hydropower plant.The major advantage of burning waste is that it considerably reduces the amount of trash going to landfills. The average American produces more than 1,600 pounds of waste a year. If all this waste were
9、 landfilled （在垃圾填埋地上处理），it would take more than two cubic yards of landfill space. Thats the volume of a box three feet long, three feet wide, and six feet high. If that waste were burned, the ashes would fit into a box three feet long, three feet wide, but only nine inches high!Some communities in
10、the Northeast may be running out of land for new landfills. And, since most people dont want landfills in their backyards, it has become more difficult to obtain permits to build new landfills. Taking the country as a whole, the United States has plenty of open space, of course, but it is expensive
11、to transport garbage a long distance to put it into a landfill.TO BURN OR NOT TO BURN?Some people are concerned that burning garbage may harm the environment. Like coal plants, waste-to-energy plants produce air pollution when the fuel is burned to produce steam or electricity. Burning garbage relea
12、ses the chemicals and substances found in the waste. Some chemicals can be a threat to people, the environment, or both, if they are not properly controlled.Some critics of waste-to-cnergy plants are afraid that burning waste will hamper （妨/导， 阻/导）recycling programs. If everyone sends their trash to
13、 a waste-to-energy plant, they say, there will be little motive to recycle. Several states have considered or arc considering banning wastc-to-cncrgy plants unless recycling programs arc in place. Massachusetts, New Jersey, and New York City have delayed new waste-to-energy plants, hoping to increas
14、e the level of recycling first.So, whats the real story? Can recycling and burning waste coexist? At first glance, recycling and waste-to-energy seem to be at odds （不一致），but they can actually complement （弥补）each other. Thats because it makes good sense to recycle some materials, and better sense to
15、burn others.Lets look at aluminum, for example. Aluminum mineral is so expensive to mine that recycling aluminum more than pays for itself. Burning it produces no energy. So clearly, aluminum is valuable to recycle and not useful to burn.Paper, on the other hand, can either be burned or recycled-it
16、all depends on the price the used paper will bring.Plastics are another matter. Because plastics are made from petroleum and natural gas, they are excellent sources of energy for waste-to-energy plants. This is especially true since plastics are not as easy to recycle as steel, aluminum, or paper. P
17、lastics almost always have to be hand sorted and making a product from recycled plastics may cost more than making it from new materials.To burn or not to burn is not really the question. We should use both recycling and waste-to-energy as alternatives to landfilling.Waste to EnergyJUST BURN IT!WHYB
