, only 14-18% of that is recycled. And now that China has stopped importing the world's plastic waste, we're being forced to deal with it domestically.
The problem is, most plastics just aren't recyclable. And even those that are degrade in quality each time they're remade, meaning they'll eventually end up in a landfill too. Many environmentalists say this means we need to stop plastics production at the source, and support bans or taxes on single-use plastics.
But plastic industry groups are betting big on a technology known as chemical recycling, which is supposed to break down any type of plastic into its raw components, and convert it into either fuel or plastic that's as good a new. A number of companies like Brightmark, Plastic Energy, and Agilyx now say they're ready to deploy this technology on a larger scale than ever before. But skepticism abounds, as environmental groups express doubt about the tech's economic feasibility, capacity to further scale up, and carbon footprint.

neguinha burra, como essa gente pode jogar videogame e ficar falando merda na internet ao mesmo tempo?
Chemical recycling is definitely the pathway to go, imo. it's basically a giant pressure cooker of trash back into useful items. The idea of adding a virgin plastic tax is a bad idea. Better off making a tariff on plastics. allows an internal recycle industry to flourish.
How did you all miss Aduro Clean Technologies? Their water-based chemical recycling process handles 4 types of plastic, is economical, modular and efficient. $ACTHF is valued under 45M. The most capable of all chemical plastic recyclers so far.
Another scam, just re-think packaging, how about bio degradable packaging. Come on people open Your eyes, corporate America just wants another business model.
Too expensive process. People rather landfill then put to turn it into a fuel.

The best responses we individually can make to the plastic problem are: 1. Buy less disposable plastic in the first place. 2. Recycle the plastic you do buy by reusing it in your own life. So much of the plastic that gets thrown away could have been reused by its owner.
thanks
can u throw it in the volcano or something put it back where it came from? reset the cycle altogether?

Thanks for the video. Most plastic bottles in everyday life can be reused. Likewise for plastic utensils, heavy duty cups, plates, etc. Spreading this idea requires a cultural shift. People need to stop smugly thinking of recycling bins as the answer to our plastic problem.
What about the environment Chemicals Doesn’t sound Liberal CNBC to me what about the green deal and the environment.
I do not think plastic could be replaced, unless something economical and durable as plastic, is invented. I think that could take at least 200 years from lab to the consumer. I think scientists should work faster than that to come up with the right solution.

kkemperwb You may find this interesting. Also, if you look at my comments on this I think it is clear that the Top Priority about plastics is to keep them out of waterways/oceans, at all costs. Landfilling or even turning into fuel is preferable than loose in the environment.

Recycle, reuse and remake into something different originally.
This would mean that we are still a throw-away culture and all the emissions that come with continuing to produce plastics. And what about the 8M tons of plastics that end up in the ocean every year? We should reduce plastic use
I believe that the only way is to hit governments and people where it hurts the most (Their pockets) an international coalition must demand for the globe to recycle. Not doing so you paid. To continue the effort. In very corner of the globe recycle bins need to be put in place.

DNMR . Biodegradeable plastic.
Maybe pass a law that only one size water bottles, perhaps one liter size or 5 gl. Make it mandatory to use your own refillable jugs with more sites to dispense water.
It'll be a step in the right direction. Along with using other materials other than petroleum by-products to make plastic such as hemp plastic which would be biodegradable
Horrible 😮
Plastic recycling... It was always an ad campaign. Never a useable technology. Paid for by the petroleum companies... to make us feel better about the waste...

Good to know. Now I’ll stop wasting my time recycling plastic and just throw it away in the garbage.
Plastic “recycling” was a scam cooked up by oil companies in the 70’s as a means to keep plastic from being banned outright as well as a way to sell more plastic. Recycled plastic needs virgin plastic to be useful again. It’s a feedback loop.
