Good for them - until recently it had never occurred to me that many “recycling” programs were just “send it to another country”.
It wasn’t until someone on HN pointed out to me that even most plastic “recycling” is just shredding and using for things like carpet.
The long term solution seems to replace most plastics with paper/cardboard and actually compostable materials (which doesn’t really include the compostable plastics)
