Okay this may not be relatable for a lot of people who do not separate their trash into 4 different bins. But we have a dedicated bin for organic waste, we use it for energy production etc. The supermarkets put these little stickers on their fruit and veggies, they are similarly infuriating as stickers on non organic stuff.
Just leave the stickers on the peels in the organic waste bin. It's fine.
Are those stickers fully paper and no plastic?
Usually there tends to be a thin plastic film.
The stickers on fruit snd veggies are usually edible, in my experience. But I ain't ever seen one rip like a normal sticker when peeling them off as shown in OP's pic so... This looks more like a sticker the store put on it, snd not like the grower's sticker that's usually on the fruit.
As I do worm composting at home, having those stickers all around is a hell and they are certainly not to be eaten, they may be indigestible at best.
Usually they're required to be food safe, so eating them should at the very least be harmless.
It has a plastic film on it, and it is not what you want to try to compost unless you want contaminate your soil with microplastics. But most people just don't know this or care
I can guarantee you your soil is already contaminated with microplastics that have been shed from car tires and entered the water-table.
Sorry, but your argument doesn't work very well. It is classic whataboutism. Why would that make me want to contaminate it more with some stickers?
Because the microplastics from the sticker amount to a rounding error. You're spending time and energy doing nothing of value. It's like you're picking each individual marshmallow from your lucky charms to reduce your sugar intake but then drinking 8 cans of coca-cola.
And it's not whataboutism, i am not defending my own bad actions by attempting to deflect. That's what whataboutism is. Not telling someone that it's pointless to ration their toilet flushes when they're sprinklers are still watering their lawn three times a day.
