Burning plastic sends the waste into the air where it joins the water cycle. The matter isn’t destroyed, it’s just atomized and spread out. Properly sealed landfills ostensibly contain the damage, although we should recognize that landfill regulations are lax at best.
Until then plastic that can’t recycled needs to be burned.
Whose fucking shiti idea was it to put it landfill?

We already burn oil. I positing burning would fix micro plastic issue.
This is also not my domain so I am talking out of my ass mostly to get a convo going so maybe somebody competent can provide proper context.
