You seem very knowledgeable. Do you believe our plastics are actually being recycled, or are they just being bailed up and sold into storage somewhere? I keep reading that demand for plastic recycling is nowhere near the supply, that it’s not a viable market. I’m hoping I’m no

Haha I'm not that knowledgable. I just watch a lot of documentaries and this was an interesting topic that impacted a lot of municipalities across not just SF, CA, the USA but like the whole world.
I mean head over to Berkeley and they have like 5 bins so there is definitely additional sorting going on but what happens to the plastic is beyond my pay grade.
