A few minutes spent reading about the difficulties of dealing with the salt left behind at water desalination plants is all you would need to understand why this statement is painfully ignorant.

People who like to waste resources to feel like they're accomplishing something (when they really aren't) will be devastated.

I would be pro-recycling if it were actually real where I live. It is not, so I dont even bother.

Basically the only thing that makes sense to recycle is aluminum.

Recycling is great in theory and everyone should want a cost effective and efficient way to recycle. Plastics are a fricking nuisance and we need to figure something out eventually.


People need to realize they can recycle at home. You drink a plastic water bottle, fill it up once out the tap and you just recycled that bottle with the same use with 100% efficiency.

Most of what gets recycled goes to China so they can sell it back to us.

Most of what gets put in recycling is contaminated by food so it gets tossed in the landfill with everything else. Unless you clean your bottles and cans, it’s useless to recycle it
