I heard the other day that all these bottles and cans that we "recycle" actually don't get recycled and instead get tossed back and forth between different companies, or end up getting dumped into the ocean and/or other countries due to the fact that recycling costs tons of money to do. Does anyone have any information or articles on this or can

Here's an article from The Oregonian today about problems with "contaminants" in our new recycling carts -- people putting things that can't be recycled in the bins as well as dangerous objects, like glass (which is supposed to go in a separate container) or sharp can lids, that are hazzards to the workers who do the sorting.
