The logic of this escapes me. Is there really any net gain with
recycling?

The main driving force has been the lack of landfill sites to dump things
into.

And yet the east coast is falling into the sea because of lack of material
to pile into landfill.

I think the word you missed out in front of material is 'suitable'. Domestic
rubbish is not a particularly useful landfill material to stop erosion.
