Default Trash, does it all burn up?

Hmm, in the press conf yesterday, someone asked about rubbish. and of course
they said it was packed into a now redundant spacecraft and destroyed by
burning it up over the Pacific. However, this begs some questions. firstly,
does it, in fact all burn up, and second, is this really the way to do it
considering all the products of said destructive burning are put into the
upper atmosphere.
