Find out if your state does single-stream recycling and/or wheelabrator trash processing. My state does both.
Single-stream; all recyclables are dumped together (paper, glass, metal) and sorted later. ("makework" job program)
Wheelabrator; all trash ground up before landfill
Kicker; when single-stream recycling stations overloaded & behind (often), last incoming goes directly to wheelabrator & landfill...
It's a great "Shaddup!" comeback, most have no idea what happens to their Starbucks cup after put in recycle bin.
There's a good chance your bottle went directly to the wheelabrator and was not recycled.

I think that's why bottled water has a sell-by date (short for what water would be in legit glass), the plastic contaminates the water over time.

Interesting... not a single mention of the worlds biggest polluter, The Chinese government and it’s state owned entities as a whole..
Coincidentally, this is the first sentence of the 3rd paragraph.....
“Abigail Aguilar, the Plastics Campaign Regional Coordinator at Greenpeace Southeast Asia, noted that it wasn’t surprising that big brands are the world’s top plastic polluters. “
Wonder who pays for the bulk of advertising for whatever the fuck is cleantechnica.com

I guarantee these three don't hold a shadow to any 3rd world nation, no matter its size.

Niggers and Asians are the top plastic polluters. It's not who makes it that pollutes, it's who throws it down.
