ooploon- exactly. this is a dumb segment, beause we don't recycle carcasses, or partially soiled tp. These are good people, whom P&T are trying to make look bad. They failed!

to 161803-You speak of time, effort and inconvenience because these guys created caroonish obstacles specifically for this segment. They are *not real*-the only "inconvenience" I could conceive of is to prewash your recycables, but that is not an inconvenience for me. Sorting between glass, plastic,paper and aluminum is second nature when you're used to it.

I would not contend that the costs in time and effort are low; my point is that they are not zero. For very marginal materials such as glass and plastic, recycling barely makes sense even if one considers the effort undertaken by individual recycling households to be nil. For other items such as aluminum and copper, however, recycling a clear win.
You people should learn more economics and then maybe you would be able to grasp the nuanced point being sloppily, obnoxiously made by P&T.

Just because Penn and Teller ae too lazy to recycle, doesn't mean the rest of the world is. I applaud those people. P&T suck.

Um, who is recycling food?? Again, you are missing the point. It is a JOKE using hyperbole. Did you miss that these people were recycling "lightly used" toilet paper and sanitary products??? Again, duh.

i like p n t, but it's not nearly that hard.

It is a JOKE! Of course recycling isn't that hard, but is it that necessary? The point of this Bullshit! experiment is to see how far people will go to do something that doesn't need doing. Duh.
