Instead of cutting back production, the industry uses mathematical acrobatics to make recycling look like it’s working.

    At this point is there any benefit to putting plastic into the recycling flow?

      Even if only 10% of plastic gets recycled, it’s still a lot of plastic that doesn’t end up in the landfills or incinerators. It’s still good to do. Only now we know we still have to demand more regulation on the companies who produce it all and not accept another recycling campaign in place of real action.
