Recycling plastic anything is basically a myth at scale. The problem is worse for mixed products I.E. envelopes

The sheer volume of padded/bubble envelopes is such that it may be more environmentally friendly to incinerate them

This symbol ♻️ (recycle) is basically a lie for all but two kinds of plastics: PET, numbered "1" in the triangle, and HDPE, numbered "2". And even these only get recycled if collected and stored properly. So almost none

Virtually everything else gets chucked

@cypnk They don't even pretend around here a lot of the time - my bins at work which I do everything they ask still almost always get dumped into a trash truck because the guy driving the recycling truck doesn't feel like doing the commercial route most weeks since there's only a few stops out my way.
