How effective is that recycling? Damn near useless.
I remember my professor told me in 2012 that recycling is an energy negative. It requires two units of energy to recycle compared to one unit of energy to make from raw material. And until that fundamental energy loss is corrected, recycling will always fail.
I can't wait until we find a better energy source. I think once we improve on that, we'll be able to make recycling more viable.
Recycling does not work.. At all except for aluminum. You are an idiot, and have no idea what you are talking about.
The tech for a bio weapon might also cure disease. The intent doesn't matter, it's how you use it.
A lot of recycling is just hype. For instance, at my town recycling center they only take # 1 and 2 plastic, they also don't want any glossy finish paper or cardboard because it gums up paper shredding machines.
