Theses companies should not able allowed to open new plants or extend existing ones unless there is a recycling unit attached. This cost needs to be worked into the price of plastic.

Here's an idea: print some dots or stripes on the plastic... Let's say "magenta dots".... That color will be uniquely used in products made of plastic. A machine that can see "magenta" will detect what's plastic and will separate it from the rest of the other disposed material. That will make recycling plastic more efficient and reduce the cost of recycling. And this could go further: for different kinds of plastic a unique color to make easy to separate them from the other material.

im sure a multi pronged approach is what is needed to fix the problem. but it seems one of the big costs making recycling expensive is the labour required to sort out the different plastics that are collected and brought to recycling centres. some are reusable, some are not. so perhaps a colour coded dot on every piece of plastic would solve this along with loads of recycle bins with matching colours everywhere. that way the consumer does the sorting and eliminates the cost. red dot plastic goes in the red bin, blue dot plastic goes in the blue bin etc. then the bins go off to their respective recycling centres to begin their "new lives" or get burned etc. eliminates 90% of the sorting required if nothing else.

Not true we have numbers on the bottom of plastics. The colors could easily wear off or blend in with the package it could still be hard to see. If the item is contaminated it makes all the other items it touches also contaminated. There are also plastics that are small or combined with other materials that they think they are recyclable and they are not. I think that we need to encourage places like Trader Joe's , Aldi, and Whole Foods to collect plastic, glass and aluminum. The stuff they collect they can reuse to make their off brand products. They could make it a competition if they wanted. . This way some of the recycling will be off set and it will be less work , and reduce the size of the recycling loads the Collectors need to gather.

If there is a demand supply will find its way.

As for as plastic goes. Make them thick and durable. Then add on a premium that the customer will get back when the bottle/jug is returned for cleaning and refilling. Basically treat it the same way that glass bottles use to be treated.

The best solution is to ship it back to where it was created. Just leave it at its door step 💩 let them deal with it.

I would say that producing plastics is less of an evil than burning those fossil fuels and releasing that carbon into the atmosphere. If they'd just increase the price of plastics, petrochemical companies could solve their "profitability problem" in the transition away from burning those fossil fuels, as well as deincentivize people from too easily overusing and wasting those plastics. The words "cheap" and "plastic" don't have to go together. Plastic is a practical material with many wonderful uses, and should be more valuable rather than just casually being such a disposable commodity. Just because something is common and is in demand shouldn't make it less valuable.

It all depends how you look at plastic waste it can be recycled, broken down into a plax liquid or used as waste to energy. It takes 98 barrels of oil to produce one tonne of plastic so most refineries are catered for the polymer industry. The most important thing is what you do with plastic yes there are rich countries who dump their waste to Africa and from down there no checking at how they dispose it.

Yes I'm doing my best to go zero plastic nowadays.

plastic is not cheap, is heavily subsidized like gas. so question is who is profiting from this : the oil/chemical companies or end user which will be end up (sooner or later) with an unlivable environment. you know what doesn't matter as long as we won't care

With all the money theses people have why don't they develop technologies that are environmental ly substainable?

I live in a county where our trash goes to an incinerator (waste to energy). The emissions are scrubbed and managed. I tend to toss a lot of plastic into the trash because I figure that is a better destination for a plastic container than the recycling stream where it might be exported.

Solution they are ither..
