  • That was true a long time ago. And remains true in some places, but since we started pushing the different bins, things progressed on that front. Plenty of place have actual recycling facilities (although their efficiency is another topic). Of course, in some far away area, it is not practical to sort stuff, but it’s kind of a chicken and egg problem. Infrastructure see no point in making large facilities for processing recyclable if they’re not sorted, and people see no point in sorting their trash if the infrastructure isn’t available. Putting colored recycling bins everywhere to initiate the process was cheaper.















  • Planes they already have can’t really be grounded immediately without replacements. Buying replacements takes time and money. Negotiating contracts also takes time. Pre existing contracts tying a company to boeing probably exist in some places. There’s probably some incentive to not drop a somewhat strategic business on a whim. And maybe some people believe that boeing will start pulling their head out of their ass at some point.

    And all that would be a hindrance assuming there is a will to stop buying boeing planes, AND move to another, potentially foreign business like Airbus.
