There are 3 tier of plastic
Plastic bottles
Some kinds of food containers
Everything else
Plastic bottles are the only profitable-ish plastic to recycle. Often the only possible.
The "food containers" are profitable to recycle only where the labor is VERY cheap.
Everything else is better off burned than doing anything else with it.
Personally i say burn it all, everything else is too carbon intensive and the filtration systems on good burner plants provide better air than the environment surrounding them
- Workaccount2 3y agoReleasing all the CO2 from plastic would be an incredibly dumb move. Just shred it and pack it in old mines deep underground.
