We have a tendency to … demonize the plastic bottle or the pot and the tub and the tray. And when we think about that, that sort of misses the complexity of our plastic world. So it's not one thing, it's everything.

Introduction
Despite the worsening climate crisis, we are still not very good at recycling.
Single-use plastics are everywhere, and electronics are thrown away even though they contain precious materials like copper, cobalt, and lithium.
The BBC's Inside Science podcast, hosted by Vic Gill, takes a look at the science currently shaping our world.
In this April 2023 episode, professor of polymer science Michael Shaver, former professor of sustainable waste management Margaret Bates, and author and professor Mark Miodownik come together to explain the recycling process and some common barriers to doing it right.
