It’s complex enough that I don’t think your answer really covers it. For example glass is not very efficient to recycle. It needs to be transported to be used and often the cost of transporting it is not worth it.
Glass bottles are still reused in big parts of the world, and millions of tons of glass is recycled every year. So clearly some people think it is worth it.
Did you read what I said? It is indeed recyclable but it’s quite inefficient unless said glass collection is geographically near glass manufacturing facilities. Cullet is heavy and usually glass plants are built in a geographically advantageous area. For example, while glass is commonly collected in the US as recycling, it is often trashed because cullet is not cost effective to transport.
It definitely is great to be recycled but hauling around cullet in diesel trucks that is further away than your raw materials might not be the best decision.
