Is it true other countries don't have Garbage Disposals?
>>
>>62188470
are you saying they actually exist and they aren't just made up for television and movies?
>>
>>62188470
We put garbage in the trash can. How do you even use these?

Also, we sort trash, because most of it is recycable.
>>
>>62188794
They're really convenient. If you have some food waste stuck on a plate you can wash it off right in the sink and just grind it up in the disposal so it doesn't clog.

>>62190622

What the fuck? Do you really eat from gardens? You can't just eat plants that are growing in the dirt, gardens are just for decoration.

You don't sort your rubbish? Fucking 3rd worlder.

I used to have a garden, but it is bad soil in my yard and two, the soil often has rocks and remains of old building under the soil, well, that was how my yard was. And yes, they do, in fact, my neighborhood has a large garden. But most people go to the store or a farmer's market.
>>62191253
>>62191314
Seems fine to me, and makes since then just dumping it into sewage. But they do use the sewage for compost I believe.

We do have gardens.
I thought Brits didn't have yards?
>>
>>62188470
We do have them but they are called garburators here.
>>
>>62191405
Who said anything about eating? If you compost your food waste you can use it on any plant. And yeah, some people do grow edible plants in their gardens here but they're 95% ornamental. We have special gardens away from our houses called allotments to grow food on
>>
>>62191498
No, you just stick it all in the garbage can and poor people take it away once a week. Why would I sort it?
>>

A big part of the garbage gets recyclt.
Stay underdeveloped 3rd world faggot.

>>62191561

Why? What does that even mean?

Dear other americans. They don't have them because they don't treat their wastewater like we do.

Food bits that are annoying to just dump in the trash, go into the garbage disposal, which chops it up small enough to just go down the drain.

All of our water goes to treatment plants, the amount of co2 breakdown via composting or sending it to a treatment plant is the same. So environmentally it doesn't matter.

Most people with yards compost in Seattle, we still have garbage disposals. It's for shit you can't just dump in the compost easily.
>>
>>62191502
A garden is the Anglo word for what you would call a yard, not just an actual food garden.
The French also do this, for example my favourite pieces by Monét are his jardin (garden) series. Like "Jardin au ventuiel"
>>
>>62191502
That's why you should compost m8 it improves the soil. And gardens here are just the bits out the back of your house, they're mostly ornamental

>>62191520
>Americans
Why on earth would you think this? Gardening is a massive hobby over here. We have programmes about it on prime time TV. Everyone has a garden unless you live in a tower block

So let the trash company/city deal with it if they want. The average person throwing stuff away doesn't get paid, so why would you do the labor of sorting it for free?

So do we Hans.

>>62191587
Garburator is the most popular brand of garbage disposal machine in Canada, so that became the word for it.

Exactly like how we call it velcro or zippers, both are name brands for hook and latch fasteners and sliding fasteners, also you call most paracetamol/acetaminophen by the name brand Tylenol.

It's not so hard to have another trashbin for plastics and another one for paper nearby. It takes you just a second second to decide which of the bins you have to throw in your stuff.

The environment will thank you for this and it's no effort.
>>
>>62191714

You just throw it away in a differebt bin that stands directly besides the other bins.

I'm not going to spend even one more second dealing with trash than I have to. If someone wants to recycle it, they can deal with that shit themselves.
>>
>>62191865
Two garbage bins are half as fast full as one garbage bin.

You literally have to go twice as often. At least your fat ass gets some movement once a week.

>being that poor that he can't afford another bin
>>
>>62188470
Idk, why not just put it in a bin? Where do you yanks keep your kitchen bins, mine is under the sink, so it's just more convenient and 'normal' to use a bin.

Also doesn't the sink start to stink after a while with these.
>>
>>62191689
>>62191674
We use that meaning for garden too, but it also has more.
>>62191689
Yeah, I need to go back to making one. Store bough veggies are shit, but I would rather like to move back to the country and fix my family's land and make a huge garden out of it. We used to have a huge plot of farmland.

Garbage men come to dump the trash we've left in the 'main' trashcan into the garbage truck.
Recycling bins are put into 'Paper, Plastic, Metal, and Glass.'
Like how garbage men throw the garbage into one big truck, we separate the recyclable products so that the workers don't have to seperate them later.

It's not a matter of being too stupid to sort things, it's a matter of making the sorting easier.

Sadly, yes. And you have to pay for people to take your trash away.
>>
>>62191969
Yeah, I'd really recommend it. There's nothing more satisfying than eating a delicious meal that you grew yourself. Even if you just put in some raised beds, you can grow potatoes, onions and all sorts of beans without issue. We have an allotment that would be laughably small to Americans (about 4Ă—8 metres) but we grow more than we can eat

It's much more work for a garbage company to sort your mixed trash afterwards. It probably costs you more.

For example paper disposal is free here, because the garbage companies can rely that it's sorted, they earn their money through recycling.

Fucking cucks.

While you "take care of the environment", the Chinks are winning because they don't care.
>>
>>62192006
They were free, but sadly, yes, even the recycling. They fall apart and the city makes you pay for more than one. It is a fuck joke how much no one cares about the environment.
>>62192122

No, the sink doesn't stink. The food is macerated to the point it can be easily rinsed into the sewer/septic system
>>
>>62192454
In my village we didn't have to pay trash disposal at all. The bio trash came into compost and was spread onto the fields as dung. The plastic trash went into the chemics factories and they made new plastic bottles. And the paper got recycled too and they made paper bags and news paper out of this. Also, you had new sub contractors which solely earned out of this garbage business.

It's good for the economy, good for nature and good for your wallet. Everybody wins!
>>
Even my office has a garbage disposal in the microwave room's sink. It's really convenient because I like to pour coffee grounds down the drain and I can just flip the switch to unclog it.
>>
>>62192623
So you're not paying anything either way and you still choose to do the work of others? Sad!
>>
>>62192699
You have to pay for people to take away you're gabarge.

No one is gaining from it this way, except Garbage companies.

Compost would save more money and add to the environment.
>>
>>62192006
It depends on the place. Some places have municipality services that haul garbage for free, some have increased taxes for this service, some require you to buy a bin they they will haul it, some rent bins and haul those, some sell bins and haul them, some sell bins and you pay a private company to haul it, some private companies gove bins when you buy their hauling services, and sometimes you have to buy the bins and haul it to the transfer station or landfill, or you buy the bin and special bags but those bags are free to dump at the local landfill.

America is a big fucking place with lots of different waste management systems.

They're actually real!
They're normally only used in bigger cities. Cities usually try to save space, so they just grind up trash with the garbage disposal, and it sends it to the septic system underground, so it saves space above ground.

But it sucks when you sneak in late and you try to turn on the kitchen light and you accidentally turn on the garbage disposal and wake everyone up.
>>
>>62192979
Industrialized in the sense that it's been handed over to factories and corporations.

You don't see many people using compost themselves, you see them buying, paying for, and using recycling bins.
>>
>>62188470

I'm not sure if it's a matter of that.

The other guy was a total ass. He's a lazy piece of shit who cares about saving money.

I personally pay for recyling, and use compost. Because I personally think that you should take care of where you live. So recycling costs extra, but I believe it's worth it.

What we have learned from this thread: Garbage disposals are used in horror movies.
>>
>>62190862
After being shredded in the garbage disposal, food particles eventually end up at a sewage treatment plant, where it is combined along with human-digested food waste (shit), used to extract methane for energy, and also composted and used as fertilizer.

So garbage disposals are really quite friendly on the environment. They're really no different than human mouths, in a way.
>>
>>62193892
That's a brand name.
