Recycling is simply a way to get people to buy more plastic products. Plastic is rarely recycled and even if it is, it's only for a single time. Recycling is supported by oil and gas companies since it promotes plastic container sales if people feel like they are helping the environment by recycling.
Also: recycling was the last step, you were supposed to reduce and reuse first.
And the bad things will still happen cuz it’s not just what only one person does.
You’d still be just as depressed even with reusing, not using. Bees are still dying. Bad things are still happening. Because it’s not all on what one individual person does.
