This Plastic Mr. Fantastic

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
PET for example is also feasable to recycle. Problem with plastic recycling is mostly that plastic waste is not just one type of plastic.
Biggest misconception by far. You can't just "melt it down" like you can with glass or aluminum or steel
You can recycle it though and it's economically viable.

Sorry, text-based communication is hard sometimes.
