Hosted by Simone Roach, this episode covers the California ​“Truth in Recycling Law” which generally prohibits companies from using the ​“chasing arrows” symbol or otherwise implying that a product or package is recyclable, unless the product or package is considered recyclable pursuant to specific criteria developed by the state’s Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery.
