We are not going to dig up landfills to get plastics. Plastic shopping bags, drinking straws, six pack beverage rings, Plastic and foam clam shells will be gone from major markets in five years. The soda companies are working on dissolving bottles. There are already dissolving potato chip bags in use. Hard to recycle hard plastic bottles are already being replaced with pouches. There will be a shift to different plastics, paper and glass. Plastics will not disappear but the total generation of new Plastic waste will fall. There are plants in various stages of development and construction that will deal with broader wastes through clean incineration, pyrolysis and plasma.
