Why aren't we incinerating our MSW? It allows us to produce electricity with our waste, if done correctly it doesn't necessarily means that any significant amount of fly ash should be released and when we send them directly to the dump they tend to produce methane as they decompose, enough to cause about as much greenhouse effect as the CO2 we would release burning them.

polymers need to be exposed of by burning them, not being sent to a landfill. that is how we come across shortages in materials. when you burn the material it completely separates all bonds and you are left with the base of the molecule carbon. this will allow for the natural creation of certain materials.

Hemp would put the plastic & oil companies out of business. The system doesn't work that way so now the planet is stuck with trash looooong after we implode & cease to exist.

I'm allergic to vinyl and it doesn't carry a warning. My days are trying to avoid touching stuff. I hope one day they put warnings on products like they do with latex: (

What isn't a polymer? Isn't everything made up of repetitive molecules a polymer? So everything that consists of two or more types of elements is a polymer?
