pollution will be minimized if you use a wooden or plastic wedge to scrape it off first & put that in a landfill (i.e. trash)

Groundwater is the source of drinking water for more than 40% of the population of the United States and up to 90% of the population in rural areas of the country. Groundwater is the source that wells and springs tap into. It was previously assumed that this source of water was not subject to contamination, but recent studies have shown that groundwater can in fact become contaminated by leachate.

I try not to think about this , but you can't help but wonder where it ends up. (not to mention my carefully sorted plastic recyclable stuff gets shipped to China (shhh!) , probably to fuel dirty factories, ah well better for the pristine Tassie environment  )
