Why is it that 1 out of every 3 items we recycle in the U.S. is “contaminated” and ends up in a landfill? “It’s a marketing problem” says Tracy Bugh, founder of Recycle By City.

In this episode we talk to Tracy about the history of recycling in the United States, her research on the lack of recycling knowledge and why we’re all so darn addicted to online quizzes.
