In this Thursday, Nov. 2, 2017 photo, workers at ACUA recycling center pull plastic contaminants out of the recycling stream in Egg Harbor Township, N.J. Contamination has caused China, long the main importer of the world's waste, to enact more stringent rules about what it will accept for recycling. Some items are large and easy to spot, like a hula hoop. But the manager of Atlantic County Utilities Authority says the real problem is plastic bags, which must be hand-picked out of the waste stream. (Edward Lea/The Press of Atlantic City via AP)
