Most of what people are talking about when they say recycling is plastics.
We know glass, steel, aluminum are heavily recycled already, and consumer is largely uninvolved in that process.
And plastic recycling today is a joke. Look into what your local facility actually does. Everywhere I’ve lived I’ve looked into it, and they aren’t really recycling. Often, they’ll dump it right in with the trash.
The facility in question has it in a pile waiting to be recycled when they get the capability to do so according to the article apparently, so this title is intentionally trying to turn people away from recycling.
Edited to remove the time period, I thought it has said when they expected to start, it was when they expected to fill a certain area.
Recycling is literally pointless.
Most plastics, yes. Glass and metals? Those are entirely recyclable. The only thing pointless is giving up or selling out. Which one are you?

Everything you say is pointless.
