WE DON'T NEED PETROLEUM-BASED PLASTICS ANYMORE!

"The [bamboo plastic] outperforms most commercial plastics and bioplastics in mechanical and thermo-mechanical metrics while maintaining full biodegradability in soil within 50 days and closed-loop recyclability with 90% retained strength."

Bioplastics derived from biomass show promise as sustainable alternatives to petrochemical plastics, but their adoption is hindered by their inferior mechanical properties and processability. Here, th...

a PSA from Coke, Dr. Pepper, and Pepsi on the recyclability of their bottles makes me more sure than ever that they're lying

It would be good if Tetra Pak actually managed to produce packaging that is recyclable through normal kerbside systems rather than making false claims about the recyclability of a multi-component composite packaging system.

Copper helps power the entire planet, enables the transition to greener technology, is crucial for the production of red blood cells, & makes exquisite & durable art. Throw in 100% recyclability, & you have the perfect ore. #NoLube :)

#Copper is the oldest metal worked by humans, & is 100% recyclable. Nearly 80% of all copper ever mined is still in use today. Historically significant examples of its use include the Statue of Liberty, which is made of copper.

Lots of great news here on the new recyclability tech for solar panels and wind turbine blades-
Its such a shame the assholes are in charge in so many places, as technologically, we really are getting where we need to be.

@hanseric.bsky.social: "LFP recycling line in Guangzhou🇨🇳. Two years ago LFP made up 20% of their feedstock. Today it’s 60%. In China, LFP recyclability isn’t a debate — it’s the reality recyclers operate in."

The visual appeal of the new design and the recyclability of all packaging and the compostability of the teabags themselves…we are SO GRATEFUL for the level-up opportunity and everyone who helped us get here!
Got my kickstarter tea from @fridaytea.com !!!! And omg I love the new packaging!!! It's so pretty and informative. Thank-you! Can't wait to have some more genmaicha!

Shout out to @doodlemancy.com for both the idea and flawless execution while also maintaining the recyclability I have in all my branded packaging. ♻️ ✨

🗳️ The Electoral Commission has recommended against a ban on election posters - finding they “play an important part in public engagement with the electoral process” - but recommended phasing in limited sizes of poster, better enforcement of existing rules, and a greater emphasis on recyclability.

Absolutely. My latest EV was designed with 95% battery recyclability.

Wondering if the future has us going back to old materials and tech for certain things thanks to their reliability and recyclability, but also with more efficient electronics.

like give me more wood, metal, rock, and plastics that are sturdy and dont fall to pieces after a few years. more resin.

thank your local EPR regulation

California, Oregon, and Colorado are now charging companies fees for the amount of packaging they introduce into the waste stream that has low-recyclability in that state, with a few more blue states on deck

Was just thinking about getting solar panels on my roof - now adding their recyclability as part of the purchase conversation.
This is a useful way to think about it. Drive down emissions everywhere at all stages. We must increase conservation and reuse to minimize resource extraction. But solar panels are lasting longer than expected and methods are in place to recycle turbine blades. 🧪🔌💡 www.epa.gov/hw/solar-pan...

We've only begun the process of optimizing batteries for charge per mass and volume, longevity, speed of charge, recyclability, cost of materials, end-use, etc, etc. It's a beautiful thing to watch.

Battery chemistry - still improving! I can't say whether Tenix will hit the big time, but its exciting that the science and option space continues to grow.

Put some of this in the cathode and some silicon in your anode and you've got a next Gen battery.
Anti-aging EV battery additive can cut heat output by around 40%
Called TENIX, the anti-aging battery additive stops aging process at the source every time batteries charge and discharge.
