It is the sense of Congress that— recycling conserves resources, protects the environment, and is important to the United States economy; the United States recycling infrastructure encompasses each of the entities that collect, process, broker, and consume recyclable materials sourced from commercial, industrial, and residential sources; the residential segment of the United States recycling infrastructure is facing challenges from— confusion over what materials are recyclable materials; reduced export markets; growing, but still limited, domestic end markets; an ever-changing and heterogeneous supply stream; and in some areas, a recycling infrastructure in need of revitalization; and in an effort to address those challenges, the United States must use a combination of tactics to improve recycling and composting in the United States.
