    Throwing processed, synthetic materials in giant piles to slowly decay seems silly. But recycling is in crisis and problematic itself. Only 10% of plastic is recycled? That's bananas.

    What are the good solutions for recycling? Here's one that sounds great, but may be difficult to implement: https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2019/04/just-10-us-plastic-gets-recycled-new-kind-plastic-could-change

    We have to recycle in Canada so I'm sure it's more than 10% here.
    I'm sure you know all electronics like computers and cellphones have Silver and Gold in them.
    A typical cellphone has 1/3rd of a gram of silver!
    Millions of discarded cellphones sitting in a landfill somewhere.
    Find a cost effective way to retrieve and recycle those cellphones and you're rich 😊

    I'm a silver bug.
    I care not for recycling.
