Rising consumer consciousness is continuing to heighten demand for plastic feedstock that isn’t quite so harmful to our planet. But there are a number of strategies for limiting the impact of plastic production, and no single one is likely to solve the sustainability problem on its own. To call attention to all of these strategies— including some of the lesser-known ones— Green Dot, a bioplastic company, put together this infographic that highlights the basic thinking behind each strategy and touches on why sustainable plastics matter at all. This infographic covers 4 keys to a sustainable plastic industry: renewable feedstock, reclaimed feedstock, recycled feedstock and biodegradable materials. Together, these strategies can make a huge impact.
