Every garbage day, I try to separate my recyclables (cardboard boxes, paper, packaging etc) and plastics from general waste like kitchen and food trash, but people tell me it’s useless because “they do that at the dump.”
What is the actual process of sorting out different kinds of waste? And how to they separate them for decomposing?
P.S. sorry if I used the wrong flair! Not sure which one to use.

My dad retired from a major city’s refuse union…sad to say that many if not most “recyclables” end up in the incinerator or landfill. Recycling is bullshit. It’s way past time for policy makers to demand a better alternative to plastic packaging but they won’t because it would be really hard to get re-elected without mega Corp donations…
