Roads Can Be Recycled Forever, Why Don't More Cities Do It? | World Wide Waste | Business Insider

I toured an asphalt research lab when I helped lead the second year ASM camp at Rowan University a few years back. Before that I'll admit that I hadn't put much thought into the different compositions that make up asphalt roads or the research that went into 'perfecting' the recipes used in road building.

Today's video introduces us to Green Asphalt, a company that is taking asphalt removed from roads and processing that asphalt into a reusable product, preventing hundreds of thousands of tons of asphalt from landfills every year.

I think I wrote it a few weeks back, but man, we make a lot of waste.
