If you've ever asked yourself these questions, this webinar will answer them!
Continuing with #earthday 2024 posts: #planet v #plastics with #recycling! . Plastics have brought much value to our lives, but they also have brought tons (and tons, and tons) of volume. Did you know that nearly 1 million plastic water bottles are purchased every minute globally?? While plastics are more efficient to manufacture and transport than other materials like cardboard or glass, it is estimated that only 9% of plastics ever produced have been recycled. . Recycling, or transforming material into a new material, needs to be more prevalent. Challenges to recycling include contaminated/dirty plastics, mixed plastics, additives like stabilizers or colorants, or weak plastics, which break down quickly and cannot be endlessly recycled. . In the next post I will explain the details behind both mechanical and chemical methods of recycling plastics. . Join the FREE plastics webinar at the end of this month! https://lnkd.in/e-aeHfup
#earthday 2024: #planet v #plastics . The very first plastic was derived from cellulose, a plant-based substance. The plastics we know today, however, are essentially solid forms of oil and gas. They are tough, long chain "polymers" with added stabilizers and colorants to achieve different qualities of opacity and flexibility. . Most plastics are labeled with a "resin code" and a recycling symbol- the latter being a perfect example of a corporate PR greenwashing campaign . More on #recycling to follow..
2024 #EarthDay theme: #Plastics v #planet . Did you know plastic waste makes up roughly ~12% of the waste stream in the US? Similar numbers for UK. Typically, only a small percentage of that is recycled (~5%.) This is due to the inherent challenges in recycling different kinds of plastics mixed together, and furthermore certain plastics can't be recycled at all! More to come on that... . #recycle #sustainability #waste #trash #recycling

💡 💦 🗑 In honor of Earth Month, I created a simple spreadsheet for businesses to track their natural resource impacts (aka, utilities.) This works best for businesses with a facility or office- could even be used at home! 🌐 The first step in any sustainability assessment is to baseline current state.
