| | | Re: A use for waste plastic the best thing to make from recycled plastic is plastic - this is already being done , if you look at firms like eco deck they are taking plastic from waste bags, bottles etc and turning it into a material that can be worked like wood and used for decking, fence rails, gates, benches, signs etc.

There's a lot of other similar instances.
