Not long. That's why we recycle. Part of that is these stupid hinges.
I don't like them, but we need them.
Plastic recycling is a scam mate. Most of the plastic things you throw out are gonna get burned or end up somewhere for ever.
They even made the little symbols look like a recycling sign, so you can feel good about yourself at the store.
Dont believe me?
Ah yes, a YouTube video.
Hope you ever find yourself in Western Europe, where we actually do recycle.
A YouTube video by Rollie Williams, mind you - Holder of a masters degree in climate science and policy from Colombia University.
