John Stossel has a way of punching holes in conventional wisdom. This take on the uselessness of recycling is a perfect example. Hey, if you feel better doing it, great. But, listen to the guys and gals who take the recycling and dump it with the regular trash. And, show me the science that says that it is anything other than virtue signaling. I feel about this the way I feel about carbon tax credits. Give me a break. How arrogant are we humans to believe that anything we do is going to change the ultimate result of plate tectonics, and weather. This ranks up there with the power trip during the Covid 19 pandemic when masks and social distancing were mandated, and people lost their jobs and more. We now know it was all useless, and not science related at all.
Plastic recycling is a DIRTY LIE.

So why do so many green activists push it?
“I think they get a charge out of telling people what to do,” @JohnTierneyNYC tells me.
