    Oh I’m so fucking sorry this manufacturer gave you clear instructions on how to recycle properly

    Your life must be truly horrible 😂

      Nah, get the fuck outta here with that bullshit.

      Ignoring the fact that hardly any plastic is actually recyclable in the first place, your argument is that conscious consumers should accept additional responsibilities on the off chance that it MIGHT actually get recycled?

      We figured out how to print on basically any surface a long time ago. How about we hold companies to a standard of responsible packaging, instead of yet again passing the buck to the end user.

        this user probably thinks it’s too hard to collapse a cereal box before sending it to recycling

            that is 1 of the 2 infuriating parts. always remember it is possible to hold two truths at once, that a) consumers can take some part in environmental responsibility and b) that we should also hold corporations accountable
