【修饰成分】With the U.S. local authorities responsible for an overwhelmed recycling system turning to landfills and incinerators为伴随状语,修饰主句,属于with +n+v-ing短语。其中responsible for an overwhelmed recycling system为形容词短语修饰前面的the U.S. local authorities,则翻译为“负责管理不堪重负的回收系统的美国地方政府”。且主句中from fossil fuels为介词短语修饰virgin plastic,翻译为“化石燃料生产的原生塑料”。
【翻译】由于负责管理不堪重负的回收系统的美国地方政府转向使用垃圾填埋场和焚烧炉,这些选择可能会对环境产生其他影响,并使采用化石燃料生产的原生塑料永久化(不可降解)。
