Environmentalists. Every Day. America's Solid Waste Industry

In an article titled,  “Methane from Landfills Localities are finding new ways to use a potent greenhouse gas,” Governing Magazine’s September issue quotes NSWMA’s President and CEO Bruce Parker.  “Methane can be used for multiple purposes,” says Bruce J. Parker, president and CEO of the National Solid Wastes Management Association. What’s more, Parker says, it’s reliable. “Unlike sun and solar power, you have continuous access. A landfill is taking gas out 24/7.”

EIA’s Women’s Council is pleased to present “Carts on Parade,” a sponsored art competition that will take place at the 2010 WasteExpo in Atlanta, Georgia, from May 4-6, 2010.
