[@SquawkingSnail]

The shame with plastic is that, regardless of its carbon footprint compared with other materials, it degrades into a dangerous and toxic substance.

What plastic manufacturer pays this guy's bills? Manufacturers should be required to recycle what they produce. Milk cartons are labeled as "recyclable" (they are not really); the milk companies should be responsible for making sure the cartons are, in fact, recycled.

Electronic plastics recycled into cookware (utensils) or dishware (to go containers) would be a great thing to NOT DO! One of those Mastercard type things that's already been going on, where the materials leech into people's food, because the stuff you cook with isn't supposed to get hot like that, cuz it has cancerous crap allllll in it.
