A good example of this scam that sticks out to me is plastics recycling. The marketed goal is a circular, sustainable^TM^ plastic economy. The real goals are uninterrupted plastics manufacturing and the maintenance of tax receipts from plastic goods consumption. Industry and government simply do not want less plastic in the world.
And straws. My plastic straw isn't the problem.
If your don't recycle your aluminum and other cans though, you're a bad person and you should feel bad about it.
