Plastic Wars (full documentary) | FRONTLINE

If you want to have your eyes opened about just how little of the material you probably think you are recycling actually gets recycled, watch the recent Frontline episode called “Plastic Wars”. The sad truth is that while recycling is worthwhile, it’s also a woefully insufficient solution that has been held up by the petroleum industry as a cure all to prevent a backlash against plastic. Even products that are labeled recyclable often aren’t once they are processed. One thing that sticks with me (and this is just one representative example) is that almost none of those plastic salad containers that have overtaken supermarkets are ever recycled. [VIDEO]

The whole movement to recycle plastic was an industry scam to knowingly profit from destroying the planet. [VIDEO]

Recycling turned out just the way the plastic producers wanted it. Source - Frontline Documentary “Plastic Wars”. Full documentary at [VIDEO] .
