    Fudge, formatting fooled me! Since 1-4 were numbers and the 5th didn’t have to be a number but just “Bag”, when I wrote it without a number it didn’t start on the next line, but at the end of “4”. Edited the comment to show it better.

    The 4th is a bin, and the last one (5th for clarity) is a big plastic bag.

    We sort trash in 4 bins and one bag.

    1. Paper
    2. Glass and metal
    3. Bio, food waste
    4. General waste that doesn’t belong in the other bins.
    5. Isn’t a bin but a plastic bag for plastic.

    Lets say we didn’t have a bag specifically for plastic, that waste would have ended up in 4. Most of 4 is burned. By putting plastic in its own bag it increased the amount of plastic returned to waste management and reduced the amount left out in nature and burned.

    We’ve been dealt a shit hand, but we can try making the best out of the situation. Giving up isn’t an option.
