Every day at home, it's the same dilemma in front of the trash can: how to sort your waste properly? Which pot, which tray goes into the yellow bin or not? More than a third of French people admit that they don't know how to sort properly. And in almost as many homes, this creates domestic disputes! Faced with this conundrum, a new system is gradually being extended throughout France: the extension of sorting instructions. In short: all packaging is good to throw in the yellow bin. A simplified sorting gesture, but is it a guarantee that everything will be recycled? What really happens to our waste, especially plastic waste? Starting from the yellow bin on the street corner, the team of this subject retraced the circuit of our waste to discover what treatment is reserved for it and what is really recovered in the end. A journey that leads from surprise to surprise, from our sorting centers to the depths of Asia, via factories with amazing processes! How much do you really pay for this sorting system? What incredible market does it generate? And above all, are your efforts to sort carefully well rewarded? Director: JACLIN Pauline, Nehlig Laurianne, Didier Olivier
