Beth Porter is Green America’s Climate & Recycling Director, as well as the author of "Reduce, Reuse, Reimagine: Sorting Out the Recycling System." She joins Jonathan to talk all things recycling: what is is, how it works, whether plastic straws are as dangerous we’ve been told, how oil prices affect recycled plastic demands, and more.

Beth is on Twitter and Instagram @bethrecycles, and at www.bethrecycles.com. Her book "Reduce, Reuse, Reimagine: Sorting Out the Recycling System" is available here.
