I was reading an article today about the dangers of ink from recycled cardboard getting into food packaged in that cardboard.
The words that confused me were these:
"with landfills for recycled materials as big as landfills for regular garbage."

Do they just mean that the amount of recycled material going into landfills is as much as the amount of other garbage or do they mean that there are landfills dedicated to collecting recyclables?
