My office building has the LEED green certification, but when I look at all the crap people throw in the recycle bin I assume it just goes straight to the landfill.
So-called “recycling” is mainly a feel-good-at-the-moment for LIB morons.
Liberals are not particular about what they put into their recycle bins. Quantity is what they care about. The more they put into the bins, the more virtuous they feel.
The stuff in my recycle bin is all recyclable. (I play the game.) The stuff in liberals' recycle bins requires expensive manual sorting to have the trash removed, so it might as well go directly into the landfill. Since my recyclables wind up being mixed with their non-recyclables, the whole mess might as well go into the landfill.
