There are many aspects of the recycling process that are negative, such as the large amounts of fuel and money spent collecting and processing materials. One commonly overlooked aspect of the recycling effort though is its true effectiveness at "protecting our planet" which seems to be many peoples primary motivator for recycling in the first place. Recycling is like putting a band-aid on a gash that needs stitches. Unfortunately this effort can distract us from the ecological devastation that we continue to inflect upon our planet by not changing our actions all together.
