Further speaking of the expanding governmental investment in waste management, the U.S. President Donald Trump, recently signed a legislation committing the country to expand its efforts to clean and manage around 8 million metric tons of litter such as plastic, paper, and electronic waste polluting the oceans.

Currently, recycling & composting solid waste has gained immense traction, given the advancement in waste reprocessing and trash conversing technologies.

The process is further gaining momentum and managed to accumulate over USD 6 billion in 2017, because of the introduction of strict & rigorous anti-dumping laws by both the state & federal regulators and development of recycling approaches for sustainable economic status.
