A progressive recycling center would make billions.

And billions.

Billions more if the ashes are guaranteed to be shipped into the sun.

But think of the increase in morals, intellect, and achievements we’d have without them.

So what will be made out of these old tires?

I remember forty five years ago with the discovery of “pollution”, some woman was fearful tire particles were polluting the roadsides.
The editor assured her that bacteria were eating the tire particles. If not, we would have piles of rubber particles along each side of the highways.

Years ago, in the early 80's, someone in the Yakima area was converting old tires in to fuel. I bought it to use for orchard heating. It was cheaper that diesel at that time because diesel prices were still reacting from the oil embargo.

It did produce a lot of heat, but after several nights of protecting the crops, the orchard heaters has to be taken apart and the residue and sludge had to emptied out of the tanks.

"company plans … to open the center at 1225 Martin Luther King Drive."

Nothing good ever happens on MLK Drive.
