Apparently "recycling" lands more plastic in the ocean than just throwing it away. Instead of being sealed into a landfill which it will never leave, it gets shipped to Asia where it's supposedly going to be sorted, but it's often not cost effective to do so and it just gets dumped.
I'm starting to wonder if there's any green habit that isn't worse for the environment than the practice it's supposed to replace.
Me: Why do you plan to dispose of it in the ocean?
