Why does that have to be a pro-plastic misinformation?

Many of the same reasons that makes recyling plastic a myth, make recycling a myth for many materials. Unless you're disposing perfectly good stuff, most of glass will end up being broken glass in landfill. I really don't see how those broken pieces is gonna be picked up for recycling, they're gonna be in the environment for MUCH longer than plastic.
