The Recycling SCAM

The idea that recycling is a scam stems from the realization that the promotion of recycling by powerful industries was, in part, a strategy to deflect responsibility and avoid regulation. While recycling has environmental benefits, its limitations and the economic interests behind its promotion have led to critical scrutiny. A truly sustainable approach to waste management requires addressing the systemic issues of production and consumption, rather than relying solely on recycling as a panacea.
