[QUOTE="TwoForFlinching, post: 3525894, member: 24500"] The problem isn't that they "can't" be recycled, the problem was there was nobody in the US "to" recycle them. That's not the case anymore in 2021. [URL]https://carbonrivers.com/[/URL] It's an outfit in Tennessee that breaks down blades into raw and new materials. A lot of Eurpoean countries also recycle their windmill blades. Used in engineering projects for various uses... Roofing, utility poles, Germany has been grinding them up to produce reinforced concrete for more than a decade now. The US in this aspect just fell victim of our own throwaway culture, but that's now changing. [/QUOTE]
