The perspective of the weight of the bag vs weight of the trash is interesting and indeed the fraction is quite extreme so I will accept the answer (and continue to separate the plastic)! — Only nuance: one should look at the impact of separating vs not separating (opposed to not recycling) as I think that some plastic may still be filtered out for recycling when processing the mixed trash. | |
