I’ve been reading this article for 30 years.
Yup. Recycling is bullshit and if governments had any balls and weren’t bought and owned by the petrol and other corps, they’d put 100% of the
ownessonus on them.Edit: correct a spelling mistake after several commenters pointed it out. Thanks.
Recycling plastics specifically. Aluminum recycles amazingly well, and glass decently, so keep recycling those!
Paper is decent too…
I hate how poor recycling of plastics is now being used to not recycle other products that actually do recycle decently
I was explaining a similar frustration to a family member who said it’s because there’s so much plastic that it’s a PITA to sort it. Between this and microplastics, we need a return to glass, wire, and cardboard.
I am still confused in public places, especially that restaurants.
So for example one place has 3 bins:
- compost
- plastic
- landfill
So if one has:
- paper wrapper from a hamburger (with some of its sauce on it)
- paper tray for fries (oily)
- soda cup with a plastic lid and paper straw
What’s the best place to put them? Obviously landfill is easiest but the worst.
Can I put the wrapper, the tray and straw in compost? They are technically paper so I’m guessing it shouldn’t matter?
Is the plastic lid going to plastic, does it matter that it might be wet? Where does the cup go? Not sure of it is made of waxed paper or some hinge of plastic? Does it make sense to also put it in compost? I don’t think it makes sense for plastic, and landfill seems kind of bad.
Hemp was a widely used material around the world until the fossil industry started to build similar synthetic products from the waste of the fuel extraction. Hemp got a bad reputation because of the proximity to cannabis and the deal was sealed.

Tobacco and sugar did the same thing among others
So when are we going to band together and violently solve this problem?
Shh, you’re just going to get banned if you say that all capitalists should be rounded up, shot and their bodies burned
Just casually destroying the globe for the last 40 years. Fuck corporations.
I am shocked! shocked!
…well not that shocked
So Penn was right. It was Bullshit.
Sue for reparations.
Knowing something is good, proving something is better.
