For a long time, I used to think this was a huge problem — plastic waste takes an extremely long time to decompose, and in many cases, it never completely disappears. More and more plastic films are being produced, but only a small portion is sorted and recycled.

However, I now feel somewhat relieved that more and more solutions are emerging to reuse these waste plastics. They can be transformed into new products such as pallets, roofing tiles, fences, tables, and chairs.

You can refer to this article for more details:

Do you have any other creative ideas for turning waste plastic into new and useful products?
