RE: Energy Storage Advancement - Will Recycled Plastic Become The Batteries Of Our Future?

in #life6 years ago

plastic can be recycled into other plastics and also into fuel. Finding applications like these batteries for recycled materials is always a good thing. A lot of plastic is discarded because often it is cheaper to make more than to recycle it.

This is very true. We must choose as a society if we should only make cheap products or create products which are actually helping the environment by being created.

Thanks for the comment 😀

sometimes it is hard to say, plastic bags for example. paper might seem better but it takes a lot of water and energy to make it, plastic bags are super efficient to make and use very little material, plastic bags can be recycled but they actually contain so little material its not usually profitable.
