Plastic Shops and Services

Plastics are a wide range of synthetic or semi-synthetic materials that use polymers as a main ingredient. Their plasticity makes it possible for plastics to be moulded, extruded or pressed into solid objects of various shapes.

FAQ

  • Should plastic be banned?

    Yes! Plastic is derived from crude oil. Banning plastic puts pressure on its producer, the fossil fuel industry. Plastic bans also bring attention to climate change, pushes customers to reuse, and encourages businesses to create reusable options.

  • Can a plastic bag go in a curbside recycling bin?

    Generally, plastic bags and wraps, electronics, and textiles cannot go in a curbside recycling bin. Please check with your local recycling provider first, though, to be certain since it depends on your local area. Do not put items in your recycling bin unless you know they are accepted.

  • Are plastics a major source of pollution?

    Plastics have been in the news lately for being a major source of pollution. You might have questions, and you’re not alone. Here, we answer some of the questions we get asked most about plastics and recycling. 1. Does banning single-use plastic even make a dent in the bigger problem of climate change? Yes! Plastic is derived from crude oil.

  • How do I know if a plastic item is recyclable?

    Most plastic items have a marked symbol numbered from 1 to 7 on them — this should provide some guidance on recyclability. Note that this information is based on general guidelines for household collection, however, these can vary depending on waste management infrastructure in specific locations.

  • Should plastics be taxed?

    Some have proposed that if trade of recycled plastics was maintained, mid- or low-income countries should tax the plastics they accept. 38 These taxes should be used to expand and improve waste management infrastructure. An estimated 20 percent of ocean plastic pollution results from the fishing industry.

  • Why is plastic waste a problem?

    However, across many countries today landfill resources can be poorly-managed; in many cases dumped in open landfills, pits or dumps. Such uncontrolled disposal facilities can make plastics vulnerable to pollution of the surrounding environment and at risk of entering the ocean.

  • How much of global plastic is recycled?

    We cover this question more fully in our entry on Plastics, found here. In summary, it’s estimated that in 2015, around 55 percent of global plastic waste was discarded, 25 percent was incinerated, and 20 percent was recycled. Of the plastic waste produced between 1950 and 2015, only 9 percent was recycled.

  • How long does it take plastics to break down?

    Many plastics are defined as non-degradable, meaning they fail to decompose and are instead broken down into smaller and smaller particles. Materials can slowly break down through photodegradation (from UV radiation). Estimated decomposition times for plastics and other common marine debris items are shown in the chart here. Fishing lines, for example, take an estimated 600 years to break down. Plastic bottles take an estimated 450 years
