Remake of Plastics and Chemical Engineering by Arjun Raj https://padlet.com/arjraj2/yzsepz4gljsudvyr Today's problems come from yesterday's solutions. How can we create solutions for the future? en-us 2023-03-14 23:39:04 UTC 2025-04-03 18:05:15 UTC hello@padlet.com What are ESGs? arjraj2 https://padlet.com/arjraj2/yzsepz4gljsudvyr/wish/2516845342 The principle behind E.S.G. is that investors should look beyond just whether a company can make a profit and take into account other factors, such as its environmental impact and action on social issues.

But critics of that investment strategy, mostly Republicans, say that Wall Street has taken a sharp left turn, attacking what they term “woke capitalism.”

In most places in the U.S., you throw it in a bin, and then it gets carted off to be sorted and cleaned at a Materials Recovery Facility (MRF). From there, much of it is shipped off to mills, where bales of paper, glass, aluminum, and plastic are pulped or melted into raw materials. Some of these mills are here in the U.S. And once upon a time, many of them were in China.

Since 2001, China was one of the biggest buyers of American recycling.  That is, until last year, when China pulled a move that no one saw coming: they stopped buying.
