What plastics are actually being recycled?
In 2017, the recycling market crashed. The ability to recycle the majority of plastic content was reduced dramatically. The market is calling for, primarily, plastic #1 and plastics #2. All other plastics above do not have a market or the chemicals in the plastics are hazardous to the environment during the repurposing process.
