For reference, the first video has 5:30 of actual content, the rest was advertising. Start at 2:00 if you can't be bothered.
Recommend the second video in particular if anyone hasn't heard about how recycling used to "work" and how it doesn't now. Does a good job of explaining it. Note that it is particularly true for plastics, but I recall that metals and clean corrugated cardboard were still valuable recyclables in particular. Meaning, it is better to recycle than just trash everything, but it is not as effective as people are led to believe.
