It has taken 4 months to get nowhere and I am sincerely worried about the little progression our world has taken to combat waste dumped in our oceans, putting a stop to mass deforestation and really clamping down on productions of plastic that is not recyclable.
I guess you're going to have to put your cape on Jordan and we'll have to tackle this problem together...
Seriously, anyone reading this, a little goes a long way and if we can all do something we can make a big change.
There were three main types of polymer of rigid plastics collected for recycling, PET, HDPE and PP. PET
An estimated 503 thousand tonnes of plastics were collected at the kerbside in the UK in 2015
. The analysis from this research applies the calculated composition to the 2015/16 tonnages to estimate amounts of plastics collected at the kerbside. The analysis estimates that in 2015/16 half of kerbside collected plastics (50.8% 256,530 tonnes) were bottles followed by rigid plastic packaging pots, tubs and trays (PTT) (27.2% 136,816 tonnes) and
film (15.7% 78,971 tonnes). Non-packaging plastics such as toys or pipes made up (4.4% 22,132 tonnes) of the overall plastics and it was not possible to identify 1.9% (9,695 tonnes)
