> Recycling plastic waste is indeed a good thing
Is it? It seems increasingly like it isn't, it's just that we've now got entire generations of people for whom this idea is an article of faith. We were raised on a steady diet of greenwashing. We've been hearing it on a regular basis, from authoritative sounding sources, for so long - perhaps since before we can remember - that it's hard to imagine it not being true.
