Trash not pollution.

Trash is considered a form of pollution when found in the environment.

Is glass harmful to the environment?

When glass breaks down, it remains safe and stable, and releases no harmful chemicals into the soil. So even when glass isn't recycled, it does minimal harm to the environment.Apr 16, 2018

I didn't make any claims about its harm to the environment, merely pointing your misuse of terminology. One does not necessarily imply the other. Trash is trash regardless of whether it's inert or degradable. If it's in the environment then it's pollution. Just because it doesn't release chemicals doesn't presume it still can't harm the environment. If someone dumps a pile of shit covered biodegradable diapers in your lawn, what are you gonna call that dumbass?
