What usage lifetime justifies the total lifetime of a plastic object?
- UncleEntity 8y ago> What usage lifetime justifies the total lifetime of a plastic object? Probably depends on if you're having to justify it to someone who wants to 100% ban all plastic or someone who wants a silly phone simply because they like Garfield.
- Dylan16807 8y agoI'm not sure, but you could definitely put a dollar price on cleanup, and it wouldn't be super high for something like a landline phone.
- Green_man 8y agoThe value of reusable plastic devices in a pollution sense is less that the device will be ~20 years older by the time it's thrown away, but rather that there will be so much less plastic used overall than if disposable devices were used for that purpose for that time.
