Plastic waste is definitely one of the biggest issuesour planetis facing today.
Yet advanced recycling might bring the long-awaited solution.
Therefore, a fast solution is needed and advanced recycling may be one of them.
The other method that is a longer and more energy-intensive process than pyrolysis is gasification.
Yet it has the advantage of being more scalable.
At the moment, Europe is considered the global leader in advanced recycling.
The public is upset, says Kate Bailey from the recycling company Eco-Cycle in Boulder, Colorado.
And thanks to advanced recycling, we could keep on living modern lives.
One of them is Artur Bordalo, better known as Bordalo II.
Since 2012, the artist has created around 200 animal sculptures using over 60 tons of trash.
One mans trash is another mans treasure.
The company aims to recycle a million flip flops a year and over one tonne of styrofoam a month.
Despite this significance, millions of tons of plastic waste end up in the ocean each year.
At Ocean Sole, we turn discarded flip flops into art creating visual representation of this crucial issue.
In turn, jobs are created and our planet is cleaner!
shares the company on their social media.
And that is already a major step towards creating a circular economy and fighting climate change.
People on the internet shared what they think about this new way of recycling
Thanks!
