If it's recycling or trash it should always be a common color. I'm used to blue for recycling but we should all agree on a single color. Green to me has always been common trash. Also I hate how recycling isn't standard. I know reasons why they aren't but I wish we'd all come together as a country to fix that (among the other 5,000 things).
A common color would maybe help, but the bigger problem is recycling is still a mess of different companies on taking certain things. Plastic is especially problematic. Sometimes cardboard is separate, sometimes it's all paper, others don't take glass, some want lids on jars, some no lids, if you want something exotic like Styrofoam or batteries then go fuck yourself. And then there's electronics...
Yeah, I allude to it in the back half of my comment but you're absolutely right. Also some facilities can handle pizza grease on the boxes but others can't. Then the pizza companies always say "recycle this box!" It's so annoying.
Where I live, blue=recycling, green=organics, brown=common waste
I have blue=recycling, green=landfill, and brown=compost (organics)
You could have just said "same".
I have green recycling and black landfill.
Oops, messed up while typing it out, but I have the opposite green and brown. I corrected it with an edit.
In Australia, or at least in the states I've lived in, Red = General waste 🫡 Green = Green waste Yellow = Recycling
We need standardisation in all (or most) things!
