That may be what the articles were about, but that doesn't mean they were correct or that is the only type of PCR. It's like someone who most articles they read about firearms are about revolvers, and saying that all firearms are revolvers.
Funny thing, out of several hits on the definition of post consumer recycling/waste, cars are not mentioned at all That I saw. Though I agree it likely should be included it is not usually referenced…
Maybe not referenced directly, but they fit most/all definitions of it that I've seen. Here is one
That all seems like a correct definition of the totality of PCW. I think most discussion in media is mostly about the packaging.Maybe not referenced directly, but they fit most/all definitions of it that I've seen. Here is one
Wikipedia (yeah I know) does directly reference them in post consumer waste.
- PCR refers to materials that are recycled after they have been used by consumers or reached the end of their intended life cycle. This includes items that are collected through household recycling programs or returned to recycling centers after consumer use. Typical examples of PCR materials include aluminum cans, plastic bottles, paper products, and glass containers.

Not quite sure how big our garbage tote is, but I think it's 60-65 gallon. We rarely go over half full, and usually less than that. We do recycle but I'm guessing it's maybe the same amount. So maybe 4 cans total that size a month, and most months probably less.
The typical two wheel trash bin is 96 gallons per their website and they offer a smaller version that I do not see often that is 65 gallons…
Per the company that does my trash they have 32, 64, and 96 gallon bins. It's through my town and I can't find it on their website but I'm pretty sure it's the 64. I could measure it I guess when I take out trash tomorrow.
Actually I'm curious now and want to know.
More "predictive" than sarcastic
Not to mention the gravity from the sun and the moon (and just about every other celestial body in some minute amount) influence our oceans. With both of them being lined up next month in the eclipse, it wouldn’t surprise me if parts of the ocean rise several inches during the event.This is the kind of logic that pisses me off.
The title of the article is
"Coastal US cities are sinking as sea levels continue to rise, new research shows"
Then I read it and things like "San Francisco International Airport and other parts of the city on reclaimed land are sinking into the surrounding bay". So you are telling me building an airport on mostly sand pulled from the ocean bottom can mean it sinks. No ****?
It has already been proven over and over and over the sea is not really rising. What is happening is normal tectonic plate movement. Parts of the world are higher(by feet,in the case of the horn of Africa) than they where just 100 years ago, parts are lower as well. If you build on the ocean, on a subsiding plate...guess what? Eventually it will be underwater and the ocean itself does not need to be rising for it to happen!
Then this gem. "Several locations surveyed on the Gulf Coast show significant levels of sinking -- at rates that are equal to or greater than the current rate of global sea level rise, Ohenhen said." No ****? Tectonic plates can subside and some are, some are rising.
..but climate change, the ocean is going to flood cities ahhhh....alarmist bs.
Coastal US cities are sinking as sea levels continue to rise, new research shows
Several coastal cities around the United States are "disappearing" into the ground, according to new research, which could further exacerbate complications of sea level rise in the near future. A considerable amount of land in 32 U.S. coastal cities could be at risk of flooding by 2050 due to...www.yahoo.com
Stop it! Now I'm fwightened!
