ARGUMENT
1.'The following appeared in a memo from the mayor of the town of West Egg.
"Two years ago, our consultants predicted that West Egg's landfill,
which is used for garbage disposal, would be completely filled within
five years. During the past two years, however, town residents have
been recycling twice as much aluminum and paper as they did in previous years.
Next month the amount of material recycled should further increase,
since charges for garbage pickup will double. Furthermore, over ninety percent
of the respondents to a recent survey said that they would do more recycling
in the future. Because of our residents' strong commitment to recycling,
the available space in our landfill should last for considerably longer
than predicted."
