You can actually recycle some plastics at home with a flat tray and an oven. PET, LDP and HDP can all be sorted, cut up and placed on a tray. With a relatively low heat setting they'll flatten out into a sheet that can be cut and used for hobbying or other purposes.
Look for tutorials online for the details.
Also, some countries have MUCH BETTER recycling programs than others.
he way the US "recycles" has been mostly sending them away to countries who just toss them into the sea.
In EU countries that won't fly as easily. But governments still look the other way and put that responsibility on NGOs who often lie about how much they recycle. They claim "70%", but that's 70% of what's put in the container paid by the city. There's still way too much stuff tossed into the normal trash or out in the open.
