    I don’t even need to do any recycling or composting. Just open my fridge, it is all plastic with a few glass bottles.

      Some plastic is recyclable. Not sure what you’re getting at.

        Nominally, but really plastic just doesn’t want to be recycled and the end product is inferior. It’s a polymer, there’s no way to move those giant molecules around without breaking them a bit.

        And of course, there’s a lot of plastics that just straight up have to be landfilled.
