Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

Infinitely reciclable alluminum, but covered in plastic lol
Technically true, but kinda pointless to bring up here. It's a thin layer that's vaporized during recycling. Not exactly comparable to a plastic bottle containing tens of thousands of times more plastic that's probably gonna sit in a landfill shedding plastic bits for the next 100,000 years.
Unsure why your downvoted, aluminium cans have a plastic liner on the inside. Their "better" than plastic bottles but still contribute to waste plastic.
