The misleading accounting behind your ‘recycled’ plastic: A convoluted credit system allows companies to label virgin plastic as recycled. Here's how it works.

What's funny to me is that, in a way, this is still better because it reduces the use of virgin oil for fuel. But instead of calling the fuel "recycled fuel", they decided to call the plastic "recycled plastic". It's like these evil fucks will always choose the most evil shit no matter what.
