Aw geez, oh no. Wasn't it disclosed years ago or did turn out the stuff they did not lie about last time they actually did lie about?

It’s lies, all the way down.

Recycling is not a solution because it only prolongs the time until the plastic is disposed of. So yes, even the plastic that is actually recyclable can only be recycled a limited number of times I believe is the new old lie.
