Even Greenpeace Says “Most Plastic Simply Cannot Be Recycled.”
For decades we’ve been told recycling helps the Earth. It really doesn’t. Recycling is a “sacrament of the green religion,” says Science Writer John Tierney. He once debunked recycling claims in an infamous New York Times column “Recycling is Garbage.” “It’s even more true today,” Tierney explain. Greenpeace now says plastic recycling is a “dead-end street.” Often it’s also a costly scam.
For decades we’ve been told to recycle because it will save the planet, but we aren’t told the entire truth. While it has been seen that recycling paper, cardboard and aluminum has some benefits, almost everything else that gets sent to recycling plants leaves as trash.
The worst is plastic which for years has been marked with a recycling symbol but aren’t recyclable. Worse still is plastic bags which end up clogging the recycling machines but some people still believe that the majority of plastics are recycled.

If that’s the case then why is Exxon-Mobil patterning with Lyondell Basell & Cyclics Plastics to the tune of $100 million to extract feedstocks for plastic processing. Lyondell has facilities elsewhere.
That would be an expensive virtue signal wouldn’t it. Read more.

“$100 million”
That’s not even coffee money to these companies, I”m serious too. Gain perspective. This sounds like a vanity-virtue signaling project or experiment. Nothing more. Like putting solar panels on a corporate office roof lol.

Like pushing solar panels, while blocking out the Sun, with chemtrails?

Why the hell don’t they just burn the bloody lot in adapted power stations, along with the refuse? I’m sure that current tech, can handle emissions and disposal of the remains?

Any chemical engineer can explain clearly which plastics can or cannot be ‘recycled’.
The bigger problem is technically illiterate politicians have zero understanding of the subject.
In UK Parliament, how many members are engineers or physicians?
In America, how many members of Congress and Senate are engineers or physicians?
Answer: One or two…
Hence, we have the blind (and stupid) leading the blind.
