To self-checkout at my local grocery store, I have to clear a reminder that any soft plastic recycled through the store over the last x years was in fact not recycled and stockpiled around Australia in warehouses “waiting” for it to become economically feasible (it never did)

REDcycle (effectively Australia’s lone large-scale soft plastic recycling effort) folded and it was a big brouhaha
