[QUOTE=NoSoup]I recycle, within reason.
I too, don't take the time to clean out a plastic peanut butter jar, but as long as it isn't too much of a hassle I'll rinse out whatever needs rinsing and toss it in the recycling bin.

i wonder if the ecological footprint used in washing out that peanut butter jar cancels out the benefits of recycling it? I mean in the cost of water, filtering, disposal, soap going into the environment...
Plus the plastic is such a good landfill object, it doesn't leach (all that quickly) into the watertable.
At any rate, the really hard to clean containers like PB are not acceptable in our programme (the number on the bottom isn;t 1 or 2 or 5 I think is new one).
