Earth Day 2022 Fact or Fiction: Bill Nye Breaks Down Eco-Friendly Myths
Fact or Fiction: You must rinse out plastic container before recycling it.
"The cleaner it is, intuitively, the less trouble it is at the recycling plant," Nye explained."The reason I rinse my recycled materials, whether they're plastic glass or metal, is to not have bacteria growing in the recycling bin in my house because of the smell.""It could be about right when you count everything," Nye explained."You take all the manufacturing waste, all the industrial output and divide it by the total number of people.
Fact or Fiction: The amount of non-biodegradable waste can be decreased by reducing, reusing and recycling. "Yes! Reduce, reuse, recycle," Nye proclaimed."If you reduce the amount you're throwing away or going through or making use of, then of course you'll produce less waste. Reusing is great. In the case of materials that can be recycled, that is to say repurposed or taken from one use and used again in a different use? That's fabulous. That's recycling."
