Really? I've seen some documentaries on recycling plastics and paper products, always with a skeptical eye. My own Waste Management company has busted me for putting plastics in the green barrel.
No residential recycling by the trash companies around here, fortunately. Everyone just gets a single bin. I suppose if one wanted to recycle, one could take the stuff into the city somewhere, but I doubt that anybody does that.
As I’ve said before, if recycling made economic sense, I’d be getting paid for my trash.
