  • Summary

  • Supermarkets are now collecting flexible plastic packaging, asking us to bag it up and return it. But with reports suggesting much of it ends up being burned, is our recycling effort going to waste? In this episode, we dive into why it's still worth recycling flexible plastic. Plus, we explore how plastic is mechanically recycled, whether cables can be recycled, and we have a question about glass recycling, does it get melted twice?

    Join hosts James Piper and Robbie Staniforth as they delve into the world of recycling, hopefully having fun along the way. One thing is for sure, they will talk absolute rubbish from start to finish.
