    Seems time consuming, but the end products are the coolest!

    I found the way that items are separated the most fascinating!

    I think it would be fun and fascinating to watch a single-stream recycling operation in action, but the complex machinery and staffing has to significant cost to recycling programs, which are already so strained as to be unsustainable in many areas.

    I recognize that there are ways that single-stream programs reduce cost, such as not requiring separate collection runs for curbside pickup - everything goes in the same truck - but I do have to wonder whether it is truly more cost-effective, all things considered.

    I've recently seen postings about 100% recyclable "plastic bags". It is made of different ingredients. I wonder if this will come out to the public soon, and if it will work.
