Good! It’s long irked me that the responsibility for dealing with plastic waste lands on the individual and municipalities, when they have little to no say in its production and regulation.

Current residential recycling is more about feeling like you’re doing good, rather than actually making any impact. I can dump cardboard, all types of plastic, and metals into my magic blue bin and believe it’s getting sorted and dealt with appropriately, when in reality the plastic portion is just landfilled or shipped to a poorer country.
