The Mobro 4000 garbage barge was essential in sparking the modern recycling revolution. The Idea to move trash by barge was revolutionary but the situation was exaggerated by the media. They claimed that there was medical waste on the barge. That caused the barge to go from place to place for five months. The garbage ended up being burnt in a Brooklyn incinerator. Because of the scare people started to recycle more and the amount of people recycling has steadily increased.
