Another thing that angers me about plastic recycling is the little numbers.

They give you a sense of hope ... but when you dig into it. Basically, no countries can recycle 4, 6 or 7 - so they go straight to the landfill. To hide that fact, there are quite a few locations that will allow you to return them... but they simply throw them in the trash.

The plastic lobbyists did a good job ensuring that all plastics get a standardized label - It makes people feel good.

I agree, this seems more like a campaign to make every feel good rather than doing the right thing by our planet. Lobbyist are the worst.

Similar to unions, I'm sure that there was a time and a place for lobbyist's, but I don't think either belong in this decade or beyond..

I agree. Unions are good until they aren't and by that time they are too big and hold all the power. Same with lobbyist, they are running the show.
