What I found particularly interesting, which I previously didn't know, was that recycling isn't always the best solution especially for paper. They state that the amount of chemicals used to bleach the paper again and make it suitable for re use is actually pumping more toxins into the environment. This completely changes my view of sustainable packaging as I was under the impression that recycling was the way to go for a better future. However they suggest that biodegradable things may be better for the environment in the long run.
