I absolutely hate sorting my trash. I loved the idea, and contributing to the recycling cycle. I hate that I’m expected to do the effort and fined for my mistakes, all while knowing that a) big corp gets a lot of slack for creating pollution, for not using better packaging, for directly polluting their manufacturing facilities’ surroundings etc… b) plastic is mostly not recycled.
True, my though is that if you just sort it when you throw it away, into a separated recycling bin (paper, glass, plastic) and still use a general bin aswell.
I have separated waste bins for recycling: paper, plastic/metal/glass, glass, and food; and a general waste. The bin I have on my desk is for general waste.

The worst part is in my city, they don’t actually recycle. Even the stuff in the recycle bin goes to the dump…
Have recycling bins convient for each room you spend the most time in, I have a small bin on my desk and recycling bins in my kitchen

So you have multiple bins in your house?
Yes
Fair enough, I mean I do but they are all general waste

Oh that makes sense, I was imagining loads of bins in the same place at your house
