Plastic recycling isn't the only kind of recycling...
- asystole 3y agoSure, but it's pretty obvious that plastic experts would be talking about plastic recycling in particular.
- infecto 3y agoYes but I would guess plastic makes up the majority of items. Paper/cardboard too which is also a scam to recycle in most systems.
- klysm 3y agoPerhaps in a MRF context, but there's all kinds of recycling going on that isn't MRF.
- CatWChainsaw 3y agoI read a Pocket story recently about cartels of cardboard thieves. Just the concept itself was wild.
- aspenmayer 3y agoDiversion and repurposing on an individual and industrial scale also happens with milk crates and especially with wooden pallets, and probably also with plastic pallets.
- CatWChainsaw 3y agoNo doubt. I was mystified by the repurposing being so lucrative as to encourage full blown cartels.
