Summary A somewhat light-hearted look at the prospects for waste recycling in the UK. The film documentary looks at the economics case by case -- glass, plastics, paper, aluminium, steel & tin cans. The industry's mantra is "geography is all", meaning that what looks like a profitable scheme will quickly fail if trash has to be transported any distance. Includes a sensational sequence in Sheffield's "recycle everything" plant.
