Re: "we do not send items to landfill in the UK"
"I am curious to know how much packing from Amazon goes to landfill each year"
There was an article in the Grauniad this week about the current shortage of packaging. The industry does a huge amount of recycling, but people are currently hanging on to a lot of packaging so their isn't enough raw material to make new packaging. I was pleasantly surprised that there is so much recycling going on - in my area the council recently admitted that all the rcycled items we carefully clean and bag up are just incinerated :-(
