No matter what color bin you throw it in it's likely to end up in a landfill anyways. China has slowed down on buying our bulk recycling.

I was walking my dog one recent morning at about the same pace as the garbage (non-recyclables) truck was picking up. And at several stops, the guy riding on the back also dumped the contents of the blue bins into the garbage truck. Must admit I was shocked 😣
