Much of that “glass sand” ends up in paint that is used to paint road markings. The finely ground glass makes the paint reflective at night.

You know what happens to glass in landfills? It turns back into sand eventually. You know what happens when you don't do that? You get this hairbrained idea of transporting heavy glass to a facility to break it back down into sand faster when you could've just gone and gotten yourself some nice fresh sand and saved a ton of money. There's a very good reason this is just some lady's project and not something any reasonable company will do. It's not profitable and is pretty stupid.

So, i know these guys personally. I also run a micro-recycling program for my bar. Glass is an amorphous silicate. It won't give you silicosis but can be irritating with long exposure. GHF does rock masks and eye-pro for high run days. Likely this day was just for the cams. They usually have a lot more folks there during operations. They have support from Loyola and Tulane labs. These kids run the only glass recycling facility in Louisiana. They literally started it in their backyard at like 21 and 22. Max and Fran are total visionaries who actually get out and solve problems. They make glass beads for mardi gras, sand bags for flooding, run coastal restoration projects, and sell gardening cullet. You should look them up. They are doing really amazing work and trying to grow and become more than they currently are every day. I was literally one of their first meeting calls as they were starting GHF and i know how conscientious they are. They're also tied to deep players in the sustainability industries. They have literally hundreds of volunteers.

USA does have similar practices. It's not federal mandate, but is up to each state to implement such a program. Not all states have a program either. Also, taking into consideration the size of the United States of America, and large amount of locations far from industrial areas or modern conveniences, it isn't feasible to mandate federally. Also, to run a program like that on a national scale would demand a massive amount of resources that would be more detrimental to the environment than the help of glass recycling. It's better to handle these issues on a smaller or local scale, which is why it seems to be more of a problem than it is. It's all a balancing game, with many different teams, all with their own motivations and agendas. 🤷

Glass sand is amorphous. It is by definition no longer sharp or containing a crysraline structure. I micro-recycle and you can grind it in your hand with no cuts. It's wild. The swinging hammers mash it through a trommel screen made of mild steel and it comes out without any edges. Almost like its smeared. I use it for garden mulch. Zero weeds, less watering, lasts longer than regular mulch!

And it might make everything even worse because smashed bottles alone are not gonna cut it for construction but NOW glass companies are going to mine MORE sand on top of what already is being mined because they also need it to make bottles to replace the glass that we're taking out of the cycle and because they seek a rarer form of sand (with high quartz content) this will make them tap into sources that were previously unneeded. And bear in mind that such kind of sand is quite a limited resource and we're ALREADY running out of it with new sources being quite often in protected areas with high biodiversity (because quartz deposits along other light suspended materials like organic matter).

@@nativ3s268 This seems to me like the recycled paper story all over again... writting paper companies require high quality paper which is only obtainable after processing trees. toilet paper companies dont care about the quality since recycled paper is softer and what they sell is an end product anyway. this is spectacular! we could turn 1 ton of wood into 1 ton of high quality writting paper and then recycle it into 1 ton of toilet paper before throwing it into waste right?! so what did we do? We use recycled paper to make writting paper (along with MORE fresh paper paste because recycled paper alone cannot be used to make useable material) for the marketing and in the process made it worse quality and more expensive while ALSO making toilet paper companies use high quality paper in order to make their product which now goes directly to waste with no reuse or recycling. so we now cut 1.5 tons of wood with 0,5 tons going to make books along with 0,5 tons of recycled paper from other books and 1 ton of wood goes directly to make toilet paper which then goes straight to landfills. 🤦‍♂ EDIT: the real numbers are even worse btw...i'm simplifying it. the main problem is cost. The recycled raw material is more valuable now than the one made of wood directly. This means that ALL the companies that used to take in the recycled material because it was cheap as dirt now just buy fresh material. if we previously cut around 1 ton of trees to make 1 ton of wateavers per year. now we cut 2 or 3 because we're making everything out of fresh paper paste.

@@AwwYouTried8639 more or less... What's in trouble is the glassmaking industry. Sand for glass needs a high enough quartz content otherwise it's not going to melt, not going to be translucid or it's going to be the wrong color... and that's freakin hard to find (something like... And i'm talking out of my ass but... 1% of all sand or something like that is fit for glassmaking). For construction what you want is sand either as fine as possible or with a specific granulometry so it holds better after mixing and it also saves money if it's rich in limestone and has low to no salt content (limestone partially dissolves in water making the final product more robust and salt ruins this reaction). If it's found like this it's cool but it can otherwise be sieved into becoming like this making it more expensive but by no means rare. In fact River sand is spectacular for building because it has all of these characteristics while sand with enough quartz for glass can mostly be found on the coast...either way... You're reducing quality of the final product and ruining the environment trying to turn one into the other 🤷

Glass is essentially sand. I literally do this same process on a small scale for my bar. You can pick it up with your bare hands and grind them together with zero cuts. I keep a jug of it behind the bar for curious folks. I use it for mulch in natural areas. Zero weeds and makes beds drought tolerant! Also, glass isnt a crystalline silicate. It is amorphous due to heating. It has no sharp edges and is about as irritating as a dusty room when you're spring cleaning provided you have ventilation and space. You should wear a mask most of the time unless you're doing a small run. Finally, GHF wasnt open or full-scale processing that day. You can tell bc they'd usually have around 20 to 30 people working on "glass mountain". Also, i know these guys and they really are careful.

@@hinderburger3804 just so you know I actually run a micro recycling project for glass specifically because I own a bar. Crushed glass and pulverized glass are two entirely different things. Pulverizing amorphous silicate creates rounded edges from micro to macro. It has to do with the structure of fired glass at a molecular level. I've spent hours with Bill Clark of Strategic Materials, the nations largest glass recycler, and a few hours with Cynthia Andela of Andela Pulverizers. I've met with sustainability coordinators around the nation and with my local EPA officers about this. You are incorrect because you are making some assumptions about your experience with "shattered" glass. We're talking about a completely different process whereby glass is smeared against a mild steel trommel screen with holes pierced in it by a spindle of swinging hammers. What comes out is mechanically tumbled...that isn't quite accurate but it'll do as a way to explain it. In short, smash a bottle on the ground, get sharp edges. Pulverize one and you can grind the material in your hand. I literally keep a jug of it at my bar for dubious or curious people to do the same. Pro tip though: don't let the hammers get "worn" or you let bigger chunks through and that can be sharp. You have to reweld a sacrificial edge.

​@@mynameisnotyoursexcuse me? Have you touched grass in the last year? Or are you still bad mouthing women while you're freeloading in your mommy's basement all day? Because you don't have a job?

​@Blueness1230 what if this thing used in construction? Will there be any difference? And will the beach ecosystem be broken because the glass dust won't act the same way as real sand? I'm worried if over time, the beaches its dumped in will rise in temperature, making it melt between the real sands and coagulate together etc.

Big difference between SAND and powdered glass. She is not making sand, sand comes from eroded sandstone, seabeds and is made of coral, molluscs and microorganisms along with quartz, “silicon dioxide, natural glass. Glass does contain sand, soda ash and limestone.

Every time one of those cops or security guards shoots through their windshield they're asking for it to happen. People get it in their face all the time in car wrecks. Might take years to work its way out if they don't catch it initially. Personally I've seen someone's pupil ruptured and leaking from this.

Man if being on this planet has taught me anything, it’s that there’s nothing worse that the smell of a bunch of really old beer bottles in the bin…
