There are some mining towns in West Oz where thwere is NO waste. Everything including left over food is recycled. The food is put in worm farms and the new soil is used to grow veggies flowers etc. Cardboard plastic etc is baled, backloaded and shipped to India as deck cargo in small ore ships where every scrap is used.
