Recycling is the last resort ! Just avoid getting things that would need to be recycled in the first place. i.e. bulk purchases with less packaging, glass containers. So actually this image has it wrong and it should be rearranged to REDUCE, reuse, recycle. So try to eliminate using extra material at all in the first place, then consider what has greater reusability, then if you really have to consider what is recyclable.
Biodegradable things are only biodegradable when given the chance to break down with the aid of sunlight and oxygen...in other words when not put into a landfill, otherwise they are just as bad as plastic packaging.
Just some food for thought!
