When Is “Recyclable” Not Really Recyclable?

Excellent Pro Publica investigation. Why prioritise the environmental impact of your products when you can have ambiguity do most of the work for you? «Recent case law confirms that the term ‘recyclable’ means ‘capable of being recycled,’ and that it is an attribute, not a guarantee.» This is pretty much like my two kids being capable of cleaning up their mess.
