From recent article:
According to the results of an online survey released by the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries (ISRI), Washington, and conducted online by Harris Poll, more than 103 million Americans older than 18 must rely on their own devices to figure out what can and cannot be recycled, information about the recycling process and other details about recycling. This total represents 44 percent of the adult population, ISRI says, with many of those surveyed saying they rely on internet searches (52 percent), information from local government sources (21 percent), family or friends (18 percent) or other sources for information on recycling.
