How many times can we recycle plastic?
Many plastic companies assure us that the plastic they produce can be recycled. But this is not always possi- ble. Generally, plastic cannot be recy- cled more than three to four times.
Plastics that cannot be recycled usu- ally end up in dump yards. These plas- tics react with the ground leading to the release of toxic substances which pol- lute the ground. If they are burned, plastic creates another set of health and environmental hazards. Sometimes, they are thrown away into drainages thus leading to a different issue of waste management.
