据《纽约时报》近日报道,中国和印度等发展中国家的经济兴起带动了对废弃纸张、塑料制品及金属的需求,曾一度大大刺激了美国废品回收业的发展。但是如今受全球经济危机影响,美国的废品回收市场正遭遇前所未有的打击。不少废品回收站收购的纸板、塑料、报纸以及废金属等堆积如山,因为他们找不到买主或者不愿意低价出售这些废品。 According to a recent report by The New York Times, the economic rise of developing countries such as China and India has driven the demand for scrap paper, plastic products and metals, and once greatly stimulated the development of the recycling industry in the United States. But now by the global economic crisis, the US waste recycling market is hit an unprecedented blow. Many paper products, such as paperboard, plastic, newspapers and scrap metal, bought by scrap recycling centers pile up because they can not find buyers or are not willing to sell them at low prices.
