    That’s not true, though. Plenty of places actually recycle. The problem is, not all countries or cities have the machines to recycle everything, so they either ship it to a place that does, or they decide it’s too expensive and they don’t recycle it.

    You can find plenty of accounts on TikTok where people who work at recycling facilities actually show it being done. It’s cool, because they are super transparent about it.

    I’ve decided that I’m going to keep recycling. It’s not hard, and unless I go talk to my city recycling manager myself, I personally don’t know what gets recycled and what doesn’t. So I’ll take the extra 5 seconds to rinse out a can and throw it in the bin beside the garbage can.

      I agree but man the folks in my condo do not pay attention to what can be recycled. Not only do they not clean it but they think dirty cake and pizza containers can go right in. Combine that with the lack of seperation and I can’t believe the paper can come in shape to be recycled if its from our place.
