Once plastic is produced, the harm is doneonce and for all. Plastic defies any kind ofattempt at disposal be it through recycling,burning, or landfilling.

When you recycle a hazard, you create ahazard.

Recycling of plastic is associated with skin andrespiratory problems, resulting from exposureto and inhalation of toxic fumes, especiallyhydrocarbons and residues released during theprocess.
