Where New York's 14 Million Tons of Trash Go - NYC Revealed

Not anymore it’s the city of garbage and rats again 😢

Schools must take part in this endeavor so students at their young age will learn to be responsible in cleaning their environment !

🤢 😷

Gotta love that the default opinion of humanity is to dump trash in our nearest drinking water supply

where does all the poop go??

you can smell that incineration place in newark driving on the nj turnpike

Enough with the social justice shit

No wonder they have so many rats, they don’t use vermin proof containers

Human beings are incredibly stupid that's why God created volcanic activity volcanoes everywhere volcanoes are in incinerator how hard is it to throw everything into a volcano and you wonder why people are dying at a huge rate

This is the pinnacle of human waste management. Human waste management is pretty shitty.

Covanta is the worst! The want everyone to dump there, but can't keep up! I've waited in line at covanta for 2 to 4 hours!

Why not just dump them in the Sahara Desert or Afghanistan! :D

Is it possible to soilidize co2

They deserve to be paid more than tech workers.

doubt brother. we have that in germany too
take the l

Might as well throw them dammed Yankees in there too!

And if you don’t like, living next to an incinerator, get a better job, try harder at life and move to the suburbs

Most poor people don’t pay taxes they get government assistance to guess what deal with it or apply yourself

New York needs to take care of its own problems

Nyc is disgusting

F climate change lol

Surprising to me how much physical handling there is of bags and other trash. In my suburb, we put our trash in a can and the truck has a grabber that lifts/dumps/replaces the can. A lot safer for the worker.

New York should build it's own incinerator and make landfills in their own state. Why should Pennsylvania, and other states have to take their trash and garbage? Keep it, NY & NYC!

🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

And bodies rats ect

Ca sucks I can drive 5 minutes to 3 different landfills

I can smell this video

It's funny how these doorknobs were wearing masks to protect against a bs virus but not wearing masks prior for all the diseases and crap in the mountain of waste.

This blows my mind how far behind NYC is. If a city like London can manage its waste then I fail to see how NYC has got itself into this state. It’s got a larger population and a layout from hundreds of years ago.

Blows my mind how something can be this poorly managed. I feel for the workers, they’re fighting a losing battle against a system and population too lazy to change.

1200lbs of steam. that will cut ya in half real fast

nyc is a mistake.

Simply amazing...Solid waste or wastewater (which is how we deal with landfill leachate) are hidden gems when it comes to a career. Seriously.

Good grief. A billion plus $$ a year annual budget and there's no recycling??? This is embarrassing!

No excuse for one city to have to dump their trash in four different states. So backwards. 😟

The trash goes on a poop train to Alabama where it belongs 🫡

Seems like a pretty shite system 👎

saddens me there was no mention of recycling; statistics and what projects are being done to increase recycling.

And that is why I will never ever go to or live in New York City.

there has to be a better way

I find in strange you bragg about how much money is spent but somethings can be recycled so you could make even more money by having your own recycle centers without passing the buck to other countries and excuses think of the jobs and infrastructures you could create...

Why don't you build automatic recycling lines that can separate metal, plastics, organics, paper, glass, aluminum into new materials instead of taking them on barge out of your sight? The whole facility would probably cost less than 500 million and reduce costs over 10 years by several billion dollars.

When I was a child I saw a dead baby in a garbage can

We live in a throw away society

can someone explain to me what happens to nyc trash? i still dont get it. does it all get incinerated now? or does only some get incinerated? does it matter what it is? lets say you have old clothes and throw them out instead of donating..what is the fate of those clothes ?anything we throw out. used rubber gloves etc i mean theres never a clear answer on where it goes

I couldn't help but think of Toy Story the entire time... 🤣

Would have been a good video till you wrecked it with racial and political bullshit!

Great show thanks

Governor Houchel wants to band gas stoves, and yet NYC gets to pollute by burning 🔥 some of its garbage. Leached water isn't pure. It still has toxins in it. In order for it to be close to pure, it would have to be reverse osmosis. Don't believe the city is paying to have that done. Finally, to have zero pollution, zero carbon...means zero people. People exhale carbon dioxide, which trees require. This zero carbon is nothing but a power and money grab.

NY will forever be a smelly ass place.....

"Turbin"....

I want to know where you've got these figures of 14million a year. I live in the UK small city with not even a million people living here and we produce over 50 million tonnes of rubbish a year 🤔
