Resource recovery aims at 2000 city recycling push

Dr Richard L Lesher, president of the National Center for Resource Recovery, says reuse of metals and glass will rise while organic waste becomes steam heat and electricity. A national demonstration plant program is planned to extract materials and energy from trash.
