Sure, and in fantasy land I'm sure there's just a switch you can flip to make that happen. Back in reality where you can't just eliminate all these sources of waste in a day, don't you think it's worth looking for practical solutions that we can implement in the short term?
Besides, the only thing I responded to was an internet know-it-all supposing that scientists and engineers hadn't considered a tear or the fact that people may throw away things they're not suppose to.
A human can design a perfect system and then someone else can come along and whether due to malfeasance or greed fuck that perfect system up.
No system is perfect for that very reason.
The solution is to generate less waste. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle -- in that order.
There won't be a problem if there isn't a problem to take care of.
