How does society change an indoctrination?
“Recycling paper (or cardboard) does save trees. Recycling aluminum does save energy. But that's about it.”
“The ugly truth is that many "recyclables" sent to recycling plants are never recycled. The worst is plastic.”
“Even Greenpeace now says, "Plastic recycling is a dead-end street."
"If you think of the United States as a football field," says Tierney, "all the garbage that we will generate in the next 1,000 years would fit inside a tiny fraction of the one-inch line."
“Putting garbage in landfills is often much cheaper than recycling. My town would save $340 million a year if it just stopped recycling.”
“But they won't, "because people demand it," says Tierney. "It's a sacrament of the green religion."
