Which Types of Plastic Are Most Easily Recycled?
Recycling allows plastics to be reused and conserves not only virgin materials, but also the environment in which those materials are found. If trash in your area is incinerated for energy, poisonous gases can be released as plastic burns, so recycling that plastic saves the air you breathe. With states looking for more ways to stretch existing landfill space, reduce greenhouse gases, and bring in increased revenues, you can be sure more plastic will be allowed into the recycling bin.
