Recyclable trash is just being dumped in a private open lot.

The recycle bin? You mean the other landfill bin, right?
when I first moved into my current neighborhood we had a single truck collecting both bins but you could still get a fine for not sorting your 2nd landfill bin
We have 3 seperate landfill bins where I live and the local government has been repeatedly caught dumping it all in local landfills, the one time they didn't was because it was mysteriously dumped in the middle of the amazon jungle, seemingly from an aircraft.
This is a great video, love this one, thanks for sharing!
If everyone has another 20 minutes, John Oliver delves into the topic some more.
We should still try to recycle as member of our community (and the world populace) but it's the corporations that need to be held accountable and forced to take action. Because as it stands now they are lobbying hard to shift the blame to consumers and make it difficult to ban single use products, while also avoiding packaging innovations and laws that promote such change - 'cause, you know...profits.
Yo a climate town share! Awesome!
