    Recycling is largely a scam.

    It mostly serves to pass the blame onto individuals and not be handful of companies responsible for 99% of all pollution.

      That shit makes me angry, and even angrier that nobody else seems angry. Like paper straws and bags to protect sea life? Bitch I’m basically landlocked, if my trash somehow ends up in the goddamn ocean, SOMEONE ELSE IS DOING SOMETHING VERY WRONG. Several someones, at least.

        Waterways tend to end up in seas and oceans though. However, I kind of see your point.

      Yeah, depending on where you are, most of your “recycling” gets shipped to poor countries I order to “recycle” it, but usually just goes to a landfil.
