Rereading the Pew Charitable Trust’s “Breaking The Plastic Wave” report to prep for tomorrow’s visit to Kenyon by one of the project’s leaders, Dr. Palardy. It’s equal parts sobering & inspiring. A tour-de-force of deeply informed, open-source analysis & system-level thinking. In short, no single solution (collect & dispose, #recycle, reduce & substitute) can do it - system change is needed. #plastic #OceanConservation #oceanplastics #reuse #chemicalrecycling

I really enjoyed working with Anne and Alex on this piece about #chemical #recycling for @ConversationUS
our take-home messages are that a) a recent #meta_analysis concludes plastic-to-#plastic chemical recycling can have a climate benefit, but plastic-to-energy doesn't
b) most #pyrolysis #oil is destined for transportation fuel, &
c) the plastic waste stream is too complex & contaminated for most #chemicalrecycling so most plants don't reach capacity -
#UnitedNations Seems to #Boost #PlasticsIndustry Interests, Critics Say. Ahead of a groundbreaking #treaty to reduce #PlasticPollution, a group of independent scientists fear that the #UN is legitimizing industry-backed proposals such as #ChemicalRecycling. https://www.propublica.org/article/united-nations-seems-to-boost-plastics-industry-interests-critics-say There is no #plastic #recycling. #pollution #healthcare #environment #oceans #marinelife
