To name a few reasons why: it\u2019s versatile, lightweight, waterproof and<br \/>\ncheap. Each year, we produce an amount of plastic roughly equivalent to the mass of two-thirds of<br \/>\nthe world\u2019s population. Much of this quickly ends up as waste, with most not currently recycled and,<br \/>\nunfortunately, ~3% entering the ocean. Following TV programmes such as the BBC\u2019s Blue Planet II,<br \/>\nmarine plastic has become one of the most high-profile environmental issues of our time. Recycling<br \/>\nmore plastic cannot solve this problem, but it can help.<\/p>\n<p>In this report, we provide a brief introduction to the plastics recycling sector and estimate its<br \/>\npotential for growth. Our focus is on feedstock recycling, a non-traditional method of recycling<br \/>\nthat works by converting standard plastics back into the oil from which they are derived.<\/p>\n<p>To carry on reading, please download the full report using the link in green further up the page.<\/p>\n<hr>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today we release the latest in our line of short introductions to 350 PPM relevant sectors of the economy, this time focusing on recycling plastics.&nbsp;
