70% of recycling material in Florida/Georgia/S. Carolina is sent on ships (sold) to China.
Used for all kinds of products, mainly toys and tools. They then sell it back to the U.S. so we can buy them and give them to our grandkids.
Don't break into a sweat if a coke can ends up in the garbage every now and then.
Frankly instead of supporting China I'd rather package up our cans and old newspapers and send them to the grandkids. Saves on toys and encourages them to read.
