Ethos quotes MacRae in story about the impact of trash on climate change

In an article about the impact of trash on climate change, Ethos cited a quote that Jean MacRae, an associate professor of civil and environmental engineering at the University of Maine, provided to the Seattle Times. MacRae told the Seattle Times that leachate is even more resistant to traditional treatment methods because of the potpourri nature of the chemical sludge. “There’s no good way to break these types of contaminants down. It’s a big concern,” MacRae said.
