If you read that report you’ll find their conclusion is that plastic marked as recyclable is not being recycled. Not that it can’t be recycled. Merely that it isn’t. Very big difference. This is a good piece of investigative journalism on the topic.

If you read into recycling plastics you’ll see that you actually can’t recycle that many because it becomes briddle and unusable. Yes, even those marked as recyclable aren’t up to the quality once recycled.
