Recycling

Is there a good recycling newsgroup.Or is that on-topic here?I figure that after cleaning comes recycling so it is relevant, butmaybe there is a better ng for this.Since I'm here, my current two questions are, What to do when I find a nice tool, like water-pump pliers, that don'twork well. A cheap design, and probably cheaply made, and now onlyworks right in one position out of five. The other four slip backinto the first. I'm afraid a charity relacted thrift store will stillcharge more than the thing is worth, and if I label it, "25 c" , I'mafraid they'll still charge 2 dollars and cheat someoneunintentionally.Are there any recyclable plastics that aren't labelled with that3-arrow triangle, with the number inside. Like the bags forvegetables at the supermarket, and the tops of bubble packs (sometimes those are quite thick and havea lot of plastic in them.)Remove NOPSAM to email me. Please letme know if you have posted also.
