Episode Summary: In this episode, Olabanji and Leekei discuss the trap of plastic recycling and look for ways to take action
Only 9% of plastics ever produced has actually been recycled knowing that the world has been producing plastic for over 70 years… The entire lifecycle of plastic is bad for the environment, from production to its disposal. We’ve been lured to that recycling plastic is a sustainable option so we can keep producing and using more and more plastics. It is not true. It is a trap.
