Growing up in the 2000s its surprising how much of a net failure the recycling campaign was, especially surprising it didnt at least hold in New England.

I wouldn't say I'm surprised. Disappointed certainly. It's just that most packaging is made as cheaply as possible and economically it doesn't make fiscal sense to recycle generally. That leaves you competing between making money and protecting the environment, we know where that usually goes.
