| General comment | Waste plastic comes from various sources including tires, beauty products, and synthetic fabrics. It includes tiny shards of plastic and microfibres. Recycling this waste and returning it to the manufacturing chain reduces the need for virgin plastics and unlocks the economic value of waste. Recycled plastic is used in a range of products including furniture, roads, packaging, and clothing. However, the production and disposal of plastic generates greenhouse gases and hazardous waste, and may impair human sustainability. |
