The biggest 'con' to recycling is that it gives the consuming public a false sense of 'security'; a sense that they're doing something to benefit the environment. In fact, the only real benefit to the environment is to slow the damage from human folly. The folly still goes on. Recycling is only STEP ONE in a journey of many miles. Unless the humans realize how they are contributing to the damage and those other many steps are taken, recycling is of little value.
Using the word 'con' was a good choice for your question because the public is conning itself to believe that just by recycling they are 'helping' the environment. Very much like the person who has a Diet Soda with their big mac, fries, and apple pie.
