Just mix it with petrol and then you have sticky flammable substance to do with what you will

TL;DR: Pyrolysis with a yield of 60 percent styrene monomers.

Just outlaw it already. It was a bad idea

Maybe we could just stop making plastic of all kinds. Reduce Reuse Recycle. Recycling is literally the last resort, we don’t need most of our plastic stuff today.

In practical terms, how realistic is it to just not allow the stuff to be made?

I see much less of it these days, which is great and it’s usually replaced with cardboard that I imagine is much easier to recycle.

Can we do away with completely? It’s such an awful substance, it grinds my gears, as they say.
