Official Question Material
Prep: 30-40 Seconds

The idea behind recycling is simple. By breaking old products down and converting them into something usable again, we conserve natural resources. Sadly it's not that simple. Recycling is deeply entwined with our economic system, and right now doesn't make much economic sense. It often costs more to recycle than it does to just throw things away, which is bad news for the environment.
