Plastic2Oil Inc (PTOI)

I agree.. P2O is hardly a truly "green" solution since it creates oil for petrol, which will be combusted and hence, product CO2. However, rather than looking at it as an energy source, let's just see it rather as an alternative petrol source. In that sense, I believe it has merit.

Don't get me wrong.. the IC engine is a relic that should be outlawed, in my opinion, but... since that will never happen we need safe and economical ways to produce oil. This is the second or third "r" in "reduce, reuse, recycle", but the better option is still "reduce".

I imagine (but am curious about the metrics) that the conversion process releases very little CO2. Even if the process is self-sustaining (i.e. powered by it's own gas by-product), there must be some emissions.
