Recycling of Plastics in Food Packaging


The issue of plastic pollution is becoming increasingly pressing, as biodegradable plastics are contaminating soil and water sources, while traditional plastics are hard to sort and recycle.

However, this report proposes that waste management is the key to tackling the problem, and suggests using shredded plastic in road construction as a potential solution.
