Kudzokorora muUnited States kwakaita kuti hufambire mberi zvikuru. Muna 2012, iU.S. yakabudisa makiriyoni makumi maviri nemashanu emarara emarara apo mamiriyoni 87 ematani (34.5 muzana) ezvo yakashandiswa zvakare. Kudzoka muna 1980, vaAmerica vakashandurazve mamiriyoni gumi nemashanu emarara emarara. Kuwanda kwemarara yakashandurwa zvakare muna 2012 kwakadzivirira kusunungurwa kwemamiriyoni 168 emamiriyoni e carbon dioxide, zvakaenzana nokutora motokari yemamiriyoni 33 emugwagwa wegore.
Muna 2012, muvhareji weAmerica wakabudiswa 4.38 pounds yemarara uye yakashandurwa zvakare 1.51 pounds. Saka, zvinogona kutaurwa kuti shanduro yeUnited States yakagadziriswa yakaona kukura kukuru pamusoro pemakumi mashoma emakore akapfuura, zvakadaro, kuchine mukana wakawanda wekuvandudza. Zvinofanira kuonekwa kuti hapana mutemo wenyika unogadziridza zvekare chero ipi zvayo yezvinhu zvakagadziriswa, uchisiya hurumende uye hurumende dzenharaunda kuti dzigadzire zvinhu zvakasiyana-siyana zvinodzokorora zvakare nemitemo.
Major Recycling Mitemo muUnited States
Kwemakore, hurumende yeUnited States yakatsigira hurumende dzenharaunda uye dzehurumende kutarisira mitemo yekugadzirisa uye kushandiswa kwemarara. Hurumende uye hurumende yepamutemo inowanikwa mumapoka maviri makuru: kuchinjwa kwechinangwa nekudzivirira zvibvumirano. Kuvhara kwekutengesa kunotora zvinhu zvakanyorwa zvakadai semafuta, yadhi yakasvibiswa uye zvimwe zvinhu zviri nyore kuunganidza zvisiri pamutemo. Pari zvino, North Carolina, Michigan, Minnesota uye Wisconsin vane zvidzidzo zvekudzivirira.
Dzimwe nheyo dzakadai seCalifornia neItaly dzinofunga nezvekudzokorora zvinangwa. Vamwe vanoti vanongokurudzira kudzokorora zvimwe zvinhu zvakadai semabhodhoro epurasitiki kuburikidza nekupedza bhiri. Kusvika iye zvino, nyika 25 dzakapedza mitemo inoita nyika yose yezvemagetsi ekugadzirisa zvinhu zvinoshandiswa. Aya makumi maviri nemashanu anotaura nezve 65 muzana yevanhu veU.SA.
Kudzoka muna 2003, California ndiyo yaiva yekutanga kugadzirisa mutemo wekutanga we-e-waste uye muna 2011, Utah yakaguma mune iri runyorwa.
Kunyange zvazvo pasina mimwe mitemo inoshandiswa zvakare yezvezvekuvandudza nyika muU.SA. iyo US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) inotarisira kushandiswa kwemarara nekudzokororazve pasi peRisource Conservation uye Recovery Act (RCRA). Zvinangwa zvakakosha zveRCRA ndeizvi: kudzivirira vanhu vekuAmerica kubva kune zvakasvibisa uye zvinokuvadza kurasa tsvina, kuchengetedza zviwanikwa nemasimba kuburikidza nekudzikinura, kushandiswa nekudzokororazve,
Nhoroondo yekare yekushandiswa muSouth America
Mukutaura kwezvakaitika kare kare yekugadziriswa zvakare muU.S. , 1972 yakaratidza mishonga yekugadzirisazve yekutanga munyika, yakavakwa muConhohocken, Pennsylvania. Mukutanga kwema1970, guta rekutanga kutumirwa kushandiswa zvakare raiva Woodbury, New Jersey. Curbside yakashandurwa zvakare yakatanga muna 1973, uye muna 2006 pakanga pane mapurogiramu anodarika 8,000 ekudzokororazve pasi rose, nhamba inoramba ichiwedzera.
America Recycles Day
Gore roga rega, America Recycles Day (ARD) inopembererwa musi waNovember 15, chiitiko chakatanga muna 1997 kukurudzira vaAmerica kudzoka zvakare uye kushandisa zvishandiswa zvakare. Pazuva iroro, mhiri kwenyika, zviitiko zvezvekudzokorora dzidzo dzakadai sezvakatipoteredza, zvemagariro evanhu uye zvehupfumi zvekudzokorora zvinorongwa.
Kudzokorora Mabhizimusi uye Ushamwari Hwomumabhizimisi
USA ine nhamba dzinoverengeka dzokugadzirisa sangano rezvemabhizimisi rezvemabhizimisi nenyika. Sangano reNational Recycling Coalition (NRC) ndiro sangano rinoshandiswa zvakare rezvezvekugadzirisa nyika rinosanganisira mabhizimisi anopfuura 6000 okudzorerazve kubva kumativi ose eUnited States Ikoko kune mamwe masangano emunharaunda.
Maitiro makuru ekugadzirisa mabhizimusi ariwo nhengo dzemakambani emakambani ekudzokororazve emakambani akadai seBhood of International Recycling (BIR) uye Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries Inc. (ISRI).
Zvinyorwa-Zvinyorwa Zvokushandisa Zvinyorwa Zvinyorwa
Muna 2012, gore negore kugadziriswa kwemarara muUnited States kwakange kune mamiriyoni 87 matani. Pamusoro pezviyero izvi, 51 muzana yakaita pepa uye paperboard, 22 muzana yard trimmings, 9 muzana yesimbi, 4 muzana yezvokudya, 4 muzana girasi, 3 muzana plastiki nemapuranga uye 6 muzana zvimwe zvinhu.
EPA data inoratidza kuti 70 muzana yemapepanhau uye paperboard uye 58 muzana yeyard trimmings yakadzorerwa kuti idzoke zvakare muna 2012.
Outlook
Imwe yezvinetso zvakakosha zvekudzokorora zvakare kubudirira nehutachiwana ndechokuti kuiswa kwekuwedzera kuri kuwedzera kuwedzera, saka kuvandudza tsika dzakarega hazvirevi pachena zviri pachena maererano nehuwandu hwehumwe hwezvinhu zvakare zvakare. Imwe yenzvimbo dzakavimbiswa zvikuru yekuvandudzazve kudzokorora iri munzvimbo yekusvibiswa kwemarara, sezvo mamwe mimwe mimwe mitemo iri kutamira kunoshandura kubva kune zvinyorwa zvevhu. Ndiani anodzokorora zvimwe, vanhu vakwegura kana vechidiki ?
