Why don't we just throw our garbage in BULK in any of the volcanoes on Mars?

Answer 1

Too expensive to even get it out of Earth's Atmosphere
That Money could be best used to reducing it in the first place
We are Already making plans to dredge the Great Pacific Garbage Patch

Answer 2

How would we get it to Mars?

Answer 3

Well, it would cost lots of money and time to send a rocket to mars just too throw away trash. So, just recycle, and buy items that you can reuse.

Answer 4

Are you going to pay for it?

Answer 5

do you have a couple of 100 trillion dollars to set up the transports.
FYI all of the volcanoes on Mars are extinct

Answer 6

Why not in the ones on earth? Why not the Mariana Trench so it will eventually be sucked in and under the crust/plates. As another said, cost breaking it our of the earths gravity and such would be too much for the payload.

Answer 7

send it to the mercury

Answer 8

Well... currently, they're all inactive, so... it'd just sit there. And, getting it *to* Mars is going to be really expensive. If any of our rockets carrying it to space explode on the pad, that would be an awful mess also. Especially if we're trying to loft spent nuclear fuel. (It would be the worlds worst dirty bomb...)

Answer 9

Earth's gravity well makes that cost prohibitive. If somehow that was made irrelevant, the Sun would be the best destination.

Answer 10

Mars is too far away.
