Yeah if capitalism doesn't fall invest in companies that dig through landfills finding salvageable material. Also that dig through cities that flooded near the ocean. Each house will have a non insignificant amount of copper, even if underwater.
It's cheaper to toss out garbage into the endless void than deorbit it in to the sun. Also more poetic or something. Send it out towards the nearest stars as modern Voyager records.
It's very poetic to send out trash heaps to randomly slam into unknown star systems centuries to millennia from now with the kinetic energy of a large nuclear bomb.

Lol capitalists slowly siphoning all prescious resources on earth and blasting them into an endless void is way too apt a metaphor for it not happen

Perfect set up to a near-future sci fi movie where the alien invasion is just a retaliatory attack.
mfw my alien civilisation is yeeted out of existence by a rejected batch of paw patrol merch
I like to think we could do some close flybys of exoplanets with it. Give some alien astronomers an 'Oumuamua to have headaches over.
yes -- you'll need a lot better rockets than you can get from Bezos or Musk
