The issue with plastics is we produce over 300 million tonnes every year.
Globally, less than 9% is being recycled because a lot of this material is considered unrecyclable today.
We have a new chemical process that breaks plastics down into chemical building blocks, and then we build high-performance plastics that have the same quality as materials directly derived from fossil fuel.
All of this packaging, which gets thrown away right after somebody buys and starts using it, all of this, we're working on building to be able to use up more of all the polyethylene waste.
To actually solve this problem, we have to move our solution out into the real world.
This is actually very hard to do.
- The budget is pretty much done.
- Okay, cool.
