The Plastics Industry calls it “Advanced Recycling,” Its a Marketing Gimmick to Greenwash Toxic Pollution that puts us All at Risk.
Advanced Recycling” doesn’t Recycle Anything. Instead, Plastic Trash is Burned, Creating Harmful Air Pollution and Oil that is Contaminated with Flame Retardants and Dioxins. And the Health Impacts are Staggering. This Pollution is linked to Cancer, Brain Damage, and other Serious Health Problems.
Now the Trump (R) EPA wants to let these Waste Plastic Incinerators sidestep the Clean Air Act (CAA) and Operate without Pollution Controls.
The Chemical Industry, including Plastics Manufacturers, wants to Weaken the Clean Air Protections that Apply to their “advanced recycling” Facilities. And now they’ve found a Sneaky way to do so.
By Removing these Facilities from Clean Air Act’s Regulations, these Plants would be able to Ignore the Clean Air Laws requiring them to Limit their Pollution. But We have an Opportunity to Push Back.
Before the EPA can Reclassify these Facilities, they must Hear from Stakeholders like You. Don’t Miss this Chance to Raise your Voice by Submitting a Public Comment today! Comment on EPA Regulations.
