Tokens and Forced Recycling - videos.trom.tf/w/a2JNz5amodPvV…

Some motorhome parking places do things the wrong way. First they force you to use some tokens for their services that you can buy from random shops in the nearby town. But what if those shops are closed? Second the do not provide a mix garbage bin and force you to "recycle" all of your trash. Both bad ideas.

Here is a report about the state of recycling in Spain - (in summary this is not a solution for the waste problem we are facing globally) - web.archive.org/web/2026012117…

We even talk about this in our TROM II documentary - tromsite.com/documentaries/tro…

Sorting rubbish is not the same as recycling. Separating waste at home or at work is only the first step in a much longer process. It helps prevent contamination and makes later treatment possible, but on its own it does not solve the waste problem.
Recycling is often presented as a simple solution, yet in practice it is complex and imperfect. Many materials cannot be recycled indefinitely, and some are difficult or expensive to process at all. After sorting, waste must be collected, transported, cleaned, shredded or melted, and then re-manufactured into new products — all of which require energy, water, and infrastructure.
Because of these limits, recycling should be seen as one part of a wider strategy rather than a complete answer. Reducing consumption, re-using products, designing goods to last longer, and avoiding unnecessary packaging are usually more effective ways of cutting environmental impact. Recycling remains valuable, but it works best when it comes after efforts to prevent waste in the first place.

idk why but I always feel your answers are Text Generated, or how some call these "AI". Not disagreeing with that text perhaps, but it feels like it is Text Generated. I hope is not....
