People giving up plastics for a period of time rather than chocolate(ie Lent in Ireland) led by the government may be a much better solution than endlessly recycling according to dogma. Reduce and reuse is more disruptive to people's daily habits and materialistic standards, and is a hard choice for some to make.
An alternative is compostable packaging for everything - practically though I'm not sure it's feasible. We need far better waste capture for co-firing, landfill, or integration into substrates in construction.
Recycling is nice as it is indeed feel good. And flawed as directs efforts from what might be actually required for the public to do.
