Sustainability
25 years of failure*
- Carbon positive – not a true closed loop.
- Bacteria-ridden process.
- Consumes large amounts of energy.
- Produces inferior down-cycled plastics.
- Less than 5%-6% gets recycled.
- Most reusable bags are NOT recyclable.*
*The Attorney General of the state of California, Rob Bonta, sues reusable bag suppliers to prove they are recyclable.
Bioplastics, composting doesn’t work
Placer Co. landfill, CA. – compost piles grew 100-fold in 5 years. Contains NO compostable plastic.
25 years of failure*
- High cost.
- Poor food preservation properties.
- Genetically modified (GM) feedstock (mainly corn).
- Uses chemical fertilizers.
- Contains chemical or embedded GM pesticides.
- Chemical composting additives should be illegal.
- Less than 1%-2% is composted, if even that.
Who wants their food packaged like this?
*The EPA landfills cannot continually “recycle bioplastics back into dirt”! In 10 years, there will be a serious landfill space issue, and bioplastics are part of the problem. Besides they affect rising food costs and use a lot of energy.
80%+ of RNG Plastics
are recovered
Automatically recovered at 500+ EPA landfills
- Fulfills highly complex EPA LMOP landfill recovery requirements.
- Recovers most non-recyclable fossil fuel plastics into renewable natural gas (RNG) and energy.
- Consumers dispose RNG Plastics in the existing waste management / EPA landfill infrastructure. No sorting required.
- Converts contaminated, bacteria-ridden plastics into RNG.
- Carbon Neutral, 99% recoverable by 2035.
- RNG Plastics use widely accepted renewable non-GMO components.
- 90+ non-recyclable market segments identified, including reusable NOAXE bags.
