    Why is our fault plastic recycling does not work?

    Industry has had 30+ years to fix the issue and done nothing.

      Industry doesn’t just fix things voluntarily, especially when it costs money - that’s what governments and regulations are for.

      Unfortunately Australia has consistently voted to prop up house prices rather than to tackle these types of issues - the most recent election being somewhat of an exception.

      Plastic recycling was megacorps gaslighting consumers (hate that word) and pushing the blame to us from the very beginning. They don’t want to fix the issue.
