As long as the waste isn't further degrading the environment after it's put into a landfill, I don't have a problem with it. Landfilling in general isn't a bad thing, as long as there isn't environmental fallout.

For instance, I would much rather see plastic waste landfilled than floating around in the biosphere, breaking down into microplastics. But household trash, not so much, because a lot of it degrades the environment by eventually being converted into methane that in most landfills just seeps out into the atmosphere. I think this is actually a bigger problem than (presumably) inert turbine blades.

@bingst Well...it IS Iowa, after all. We have enormous landfills here, growing all the time. I'm still enjoying the idea of using those things to make toys or slot machines, little toy airplanes....

@LucyLoohoo I've been saying for a long time that eventually... at some point in the future... we'll be mining the landfills for everything we can.

@bingst I sometimes imagine antropologists, thousands of years in future...digging happily into our ''middens'' and wondering at the purpose of some of this junk!
