The planet is farked… Relying on Coles and Woolworths to do something positive not a chance

More time to do what exactly? Soft plastics are effectively unrecyclable. There are no commercial scale recycling plants in Australia which can recycle soft plastics. And even if we did build them the depolymerisation process which soft plastics require takes so much energy it’d be more environmentally sound to landfill it anyway.

The whole thing’s a mess and really the only solution is to stop producing as much soft plastics.

Drown 'em in it.

Most of it came from them in the first place

Two wrongs make a right. Compress it all into beams and sheets, make bus shelters and illegally install them at every bus stop in the country.

(No that would require guts. They’d rather hope that holding onto it will give them more social license to send it to landfill)
