The "chasing arrow" codes that identify the primary resin in plastic containers and bottles are under fire by some environmentalists. But Industry and others argue the recycling symbol is not a good target for criticism and that the debate should instead focus on efficient ways to increase recycling.

The plastics Industry voluntarily developed the code in 1988 to expedite recycling and demonstrate the Industry's commitment to sound environmental policies and the publics It serves. The code helps recyclers sort plastics by resin (previously they sorted bottles and containers by shape, color or content). But opponents say the codes lead consumers to believe that all containers carrying the symbol can be easily recycled, even though that's not always the case. In many areas recyclers, only accept bottles for which they have markets. The plastic Industry opposes code changes, and others agree there's little benefit In removing the symbols. Instead, action should focus on more important issues, such as designing products for easier and more profitable recycling, improving auto- mated sorting and encouraging markets.

The Recycling Codes for different plastics:

To Prepare Plastics for Recycling:
Throw the caps or tops into the trash, rinse the containers carefully, step on the bottles or containers to flatten them and put them Into the recycling bin (without boxes or bags). Flattening is important; more recyclables can be shipped per load, which keeps recycling costs down.
