Plastic recycling I believe is a very reasonable thing to do, it prevents plastic waste being all over the place, this is the one thing all people can see and apart of course are all the positive environmental aspects that this recycling can address. But it seems there are people who are against it, here in Honduras at least in the city where I live there are a number of people who made their living by collecting plastic refuse and selling it to recyclers, but then the recyclers cut what they were paying to these people for plastic in half, this resulted in two things, people stopped picking up plastic from the streets yards etc because it was no longer economically attractive, and now the city is dirtier, in the end this results in plastic ending up in the sea or rivers.
