We throw away way too much stuff. There's enough steel waste annually that we could level and restore Manhattan. The solution is really to make people aware. We just don't think about our waste. Maybe it's time for us to start.

My Mother Always Said You Were Trash
Humans waste a ton of stuff, especially here in America. We don't really think about our trash. We take it out, push it to the curb, let the garbage truck collect it, and it never crosses our minds again. However, an estimated $20 billion is locked up inside landfills each year. The average American throws away about 4.4 pounds of trash a day.
