PBS Terra | How Big Business Broke Recycling (And Blamed You) @pbsterra | Uploaded 5 months ago | Updated 4 minutes ago
Recycling has been the gold standard for fighting pollution for decades. But most plastics can’t be recycled and the companies that push for recycling are the ones often generating the most emissions and waste in the first place. Dr. Rae Wynn-Grant looks at how we have been told to “reduce, reuse, recycle” to shift the responsibility from companies to the individual.

Based on the book by Jenny Price.
