Aluminum is the one material that should be recycled. Melting down a can takes 1/20 of the energy of producing the aluminum to make a new can.
Glass is made from sand and limestone, very cheap, so not economical to recycle. Paper isn't hard to recycle, but new paper is so cheap, so why bother. And paper can only be recycled into products with shorter fiber lengths. So kraft paper, cardboard and paper grocery bags can be recycled into paper, which can be recycled into paper towels, which can be recycled into newsprint, which can be recycled into toilet paper. Except newsprint has more ink by weight than paper, so it's not cost effective to recycle. So even paper isn't really worth recycling.
Plastics are a disaster. Only types 1, 2, and 3 are recyclable, and then it has to be clean and dry.
Tin cans can be melted down, but must be clean and dry, and cleaning and drying costs more than making new ones.
So, recycling anything other than aluminum makes little sense.
If you've ever been in an office building when the janitorial crew comes through, they take the trash bin and the recycle bin from under each desk and empty them into the same trash bin on their cart. Nothing in the office environment is recycled.
I was amazed how long he stayed loyal. For the past few years, he would give what seemed to be very reasoned assessments of how the D's positions didn't make sense or didn't align with the traditional D party, but then he would close by reiterating his support for the D party. I'm very happy to see the blinders are finally off.

Their choice of terms tells you all you need to know. "Untenable" means:
- End of forever wars
- Global peace
- US global standing restored
- Strong economy
- Reasonable food & fuel prices
- Corruption uncovered
- Accountability for traitors
The issue now is registration deadlines for many states have passed. That is why the Dems had to have delegates pick Kamala remotely before the convention - the convention was scheduled after the deadline in multiple states.
I'm hopeful these "Dems for Trump" will bring about Q's promise of "the end of the D party".
You were very close Fasciitis.
