Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

If households were charged differently for different types of garbage, they would be encouraged to dispose of less expensive types of garbage, such as compostable organic waste, and dispose of more expensive types of waste, such as plastic and non-recyclable materials, less frequently. This could lead to a change in the types of items that are disposed of as garbage.
