Lesson: Types of Plastic and the Recycling Myth with Kate Nelson

Today's episode is an excerpt from Kate Nelson's Commune course, The Plastic-Free Challenge, which offers step-by-step guidance on how you can reduce your dependency on plastic — and experience the incredible empowerment and health benefits that come with this shift. You can try this program free for 5 days at onecommune.com/plastic. This particular lesson discusses the seven different types of plastic and how these categories may or may not help with the recycling process. Sad fact: Did you know that of all the plastic produced worldwide since the 1950s, only 9% of that has been recycled? Once you listen to how plastic recycling actually works, you’ll see why reducing your use is really the best option. You can learn more about Commune at onecommune.com.
