Re:Plastic recycling remains a 'myth': Greenpeace study by tuatoru on Monday October 24, 2022 @07:01PM (#33323783)
Aluminum is worth recycling, but post-consumer paper and card is a nightmare to recycle because of all the contaminants. Food scraps. Staples and other bits of metal. Plastic tapes. Labels. China clay coatings for the printed surfaces. (Looking at you, Apple.) Best to just burn it in high-temperature furnaces as bio-energy.
