hehehe, I knew someone would challenge that. I don't know the particulars, I am inferring that recycling plastic is better than dumping it in some way from the fact that it's more expensive yet people still do it. I did not mean it in the sense of "I know a lot about plastic recycling and ready and willing to defend the mainstream view against people who think it is misguided."

There is a lot of demand to be told that when you separate your plastic out, it gets recycled. There's no demand for the recycling to actually happen, so mostly it doesn't.
