Whether one think it’s a viable complete solution or not does not mean efforts are feel good charades. They swapped a thing that is not recyclable with one that is. The people who made this decision are solving one problem. The recycling industry being crippled is another problem that is not yet solved. There’s no need to throw our hands up and say “this didn’t even save the planet! They are such fakers!” It’s a good effort, and fixes one problem they can solve, that’s how things get done, people keep fixing the problem in front of them until the issue is actually resolved.
