This is absolutely right. It’s reductive of me to say that recycling is bad for the environment; intentionally reductive.

People generally have a very hard time absorbing the fact that plastic recycling is a scam, so it’s hard to start nuanced to actually get the point across.

But you definitely nailed it. I would argue that if it was reduce, reuse, revolt, the environment would be in a much better place.

I’m fond of saying that recycling is almost exclusively bad for the planet. It’s true and people don’t like hearing it.
