680: Recycling | Skeptical Sunday

Between climate change, global pollution, and a spiraling amount of waste created every single day, we all want to find ways -- even small ways -- to help. And for some people, the easiest way is to recycle. You have a house, plenty of room to separate your garbage, and your city provides different color bins so you don’t get confused between pizza and the box it comes in. And everything works out, right? Well, of course not! Here, we'll weigh the pros and cons of recycling and make sure you're not doing it all wrong.

Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and fact-checker, comedian, and podcast host David C. Smalley break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions.

Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/680

On This Week's Skeptical Sunday, We Discuss:

Does recycling really help save the planet? Only if you do it the right way (which we'll discuss).
What would be the unintended consequences of banning plastics entirely?
Why some materials that could be recycled aren't.
What are the massive benefits of recycling metals?
How many resources are saved when we recycle paper?
