    We need both. We need companies to do more to make things out of easier to recycle or compost materials, and we need consumers to do more to separate things to make them easier to recycle. It’s far too late to push responsibilities around, we all need to be responsible.

      Yep, this package design is about awareness, as much as responsibility

      The dipshit that replied to me is beyond that, but kids will grow up with it, and think about it

        My point was that it’s not necessary, and the practice increases the likelihood that the entire bin will be thrown out because some consumer didn’t peel them off. Then the company gets to say “we told them to do it, it’s not our fault!”

        I do peel these off, but I also think that they are irritating and actively hinder the problem at hand.
