SUMMARY:Greenwashing 2.0: Debunking Recycling Myths
DESCRIPTION:People often ask what really happens to their plastic recycling. Unfortunately\, it doesn’t matter where your discarded plastic is collected\, whether at the end of your driveway\, at your local recycling center\, or in a municipal recycling bin: Most plastic items collected as recycling are not actually “recycled.” Many people are now realizing that plastic is not designed to be recycled—it’s a false solution sold to us by corporations and governments. What’s more\, “plastic recycling” drives continued production and pollution of plastics and fossil fuels\, and their related injustices.
