i don’t drive although that’s more just my current lifestyle than a choice for the environment. I do recycle.
I find that recycling is by and large a broken machine though, as it costs thousands of dollars to actually clean and break down those products enough to be renewable. the reality is that consumers were offered the crapty end of the stick by companies changing from plastic to glass - the responsibility of the materials after the product has been consumed was shifted onto the consumer. Hence why the ocean is in the state it is and we have garbage islands and cities packed with it.
bigger steps need to be made, and not by the average citizen.
