Sweden is so good at recycling that, for several years, it has imported rubbish from other countries to keep its recycling plants going. Less than 1% of Swedish household waste was sent to landfills(垃圾填埋场) last year or any year since 2011.
We can only dream of such an effective system in the UK, which is why we end up paying expensive transport costs to send rubbish to be recycled overseas rather than paying fines to send it to landfills under The Landfill Tax of 1996.
Sweden has a culture of looking after the environment. “We Swedish people are aware of what we need to do on environmental issues. We worked on communications for long to make people not throw things outdoors so that we can recycle and reuse,” says Anna-Carin Gripwall, director of communications for Avfall Sverige, the Swedish Waste Management’s recycling association.
Over time, Sweden has carried out a national recycling policy so that even though private companies undertake most of the business of importing and burning waste, the energy goes into a national heating network to heat homes through the freezing Swedish winter.
However, some people argue that the country is escaping real recycling. Paper plant managers say wood fiber can be used up to six times before it becomes dust. If Sweden burns paper before that point, it’s exhausting the potential for true recycling and replacing used paper with fresh raw material.
Ms Gripwall describes Sweden’s policy of importing waste to recycle from other countries as a temporary situation. “There’s a ban on landfill in EU countries, so instead of paying the fine they send it to us as a service. They should and will build their own plants, to reduce their own waste, as we’re doing in Sweden,” Ms Gripwall says.

A.An effective recycling system is adopted.
B.People are encouraged to sell rubbish abroad.
C.People are forbidden to send waste to landfills.
D.An increasing number of landfills are being built.
3.What can we infer about Sweden’s recycling system?
A.It’s being spread around the world.
B.It’s also thought to have some shortcomings.
C.It’s so perfect to receive good evaluation.
D.It solves the problems with the local energy.
4.What opinion should Ms Gripwall hold according to the text?
A.It’s partly wrong to import rubbish from other countries.
B.The technology of handling waste will be developed wildly.
C.It’s possible to completely solve all environmental problems.
D.All countries should work together to protect the environment.
