The Surprising Environmental Benefits of Plastics

plasticspossible 2017-09-29 | When it comes to our impact on the environment, every type of material has its pros and cons. How do plastics stack up against some common alternatives?

We took to the streets to debunk some common perceptions about plastics and the environmental footprint they leave behind. You'll be surprised to learn that they actually reduce the impact we have in many different ways.

Did you know . . .
- Plastics have 4x less the environmental costs than alternative materials?
- Lighter plastics conserve more natural resources than heavier materials like glass?
- 40% of food in the United States is wasted, & plastic materials are often used to help them last longer?
- A cucumber wrapped in plastic can last up to 3 weeks?
- We recycled more than 6 billion pounds of plastic in 2015?

Plastic House by Tiny House Nations Zack Giffin Travels to Pittsburgh

plasticspossible 2016-07-19 | Zack Giffin's energy-efficient tiny house traveled cross-country to Pittsburgh's Carnegie Science Center. Learn how he built this house: youtu.be/LH1tfAOQZG4

A wide range of plastic building materials contribute to energy efficiency. Plastics Make it Possible® partnered with Zack Giffin of Tiny House Nation to build this house in Boulder, CO.

The tiny house with spray foam insulation, house wrap, vinyl siding, wall coverings, plastic window frames, and sealants, represents that plastics can help reduce the amount of unwanted airflow between the inside and outside of a house so we can use less energy for heating and cooling.

And even though this house is only 170 square feet, plastics can dramatically improve energy efficiency in any size home!

This tiny house uses a variety of innovative plastic insulation and sealants to form a continuous thermal barrier, helping create a tight building envelope that improves energy efficiency and saves money on heating and cooling.

Zack's house even has tough, plastic solar-energy shingles; they protect the roof while making it possible to to go off-grid!

To demonstrate the wide range of innovative plastic building materials that contribute to energy efficiency, Plastics Make it Possible built this tiny house in Boulder, CO. From insulation and sealants, to siding and windows, plastics help reduce the amount of unwanted airflow between the inside and outside of a house so we can save energy used in heating and cooling.

Tom Wilhelmsen Pitches Fans To Recycle Plastics

plasticspossible 2015-08-25 | Plastics Make it Possible has worked with Major League Baseball teams to encourage fans to recycle everyday plastic products. Learn more here: plasticsmakeitpossible.com/plastics-recycling/recycling-events-initiatives/recycling-initiatives/second-chances/plastics-make-it-possible-helps-baseball-fans-hit-a-home-run-for-recycling

On September 13, 2015, Plastics Make it Possible took over the Seattle Mariners' Safeco Field to share plastic recycling ideas and tips in baseball stadiums around the country. When you recycle everyday plastic packaging, you help keep valuable resources out of landfills—resources that can live on in useful new products, such as a T-shirt.

How does it work? The plastic recycling machine at Safeco Field - which accepted fans' empty plastic bottles and returned t-shirts made of recycled plastic - demonstrated how! Plastic bottles are melted and stretched into a fine thread, which is woven into soft, durable fabrics that then are used in a wide variety of fashionable and functional clothing, from swimsuits to sports jerseys, and fleece jackets to little black dresses.

And with recycling bins showing up everywhere people gather, it’s never been easier to recycle your plastic bottles, containers, caps, lids, and wraps.
