Your point is that you are paying for it already so you might as well do nothing to help the environment? Does this include dumping used motor oil on the ground because-- hey you already paid for it right?

BTW I recall New Jersey was shipping their trash to other lands by barge because they had run out of landfill space. Recycling is not mandated in Florida (yet) but if people do their part hopefully it never will be.

It's called being responsible for yourself and your surroundings.

RECYCLING DOESN'T HELP THE ENVIRONMENT!

It is a social conditioning process of making people unthinking slaves to leftist propaganda.

Recycling fails to help the environment because it consumes more resources than it conserves, reducing societal wealth. There is a strong correlation between societal wealth and environmental quality. What makes us poorer (like recycling does) makes us dirtier.

Recycling also fails to help the environment because of the energy it wastes, because of the other resources it wastes (which could be devoted to things that actually help.)

There is nothing environmentally wrong with putting glass, paper, aluminum, steel, and plastic into holes in the ground.
