Now Call Me Cynical But......

I watched the BBC Breakfast today and they said in one item regarding bin collection that quote "The landfill sites in the UK will fill up in less than nine years.
Strange this.
I was watching Fox news at the weekend. They were also talking about recycling. Guess what? their reporter said "The landfill sites in America will fill up according to scientists in less than nine years"
Coincidence? collusion? Or just tosh?

We could always dig some more holes. I have some ideas as to where.

I read somewhere that the UK is producing enough rubbish to fill the Albert Hall every hour.
