    I guess, that’s not the biggest issue. Everyone has that, who’s sorting their trash. The real annoying part (at least for me) is taking the effort to physically take the trash apart. For example removing cellotape from cardboard, removing metal clips from cardboard, washing food remains from containers, removing paper labels from cans, etc. It takes time, and sometimes it’s not even easy to do.

    I go to great lengths to do all that, but when it turns out to be impossible, I just throw it in the general waste and I don’t care.

      True, my though is that if you just sort it when you throw it away, into a separated recycling bin (paper, glass, plastic) and still use a general bin aswell.
