Future of Recycling sector in a post Covid-19 world
Since 1950, the world has created 6.3 billion tonnes of plastic waste, 91% of which has never been recycled, according to a 2017 study published in the journal Science. Most is hard to recycle, and many recyclers have long depended on government support. New plastic, known to the industry as “virgin” material, can be half the price of the most common recycled plastic. “Over the next few decades, population and income growth are expected to create more demand for plastics, which help support safety, convenience and improved living standards,”. Every year the world generates over 2 billion metric tons of municipal solid waste. The COVID-19 pandemic has changed how we consume, which is being reflected in the recycling and waste industry.
