  • After deciding that he wouldn’t sit on the fence when it comes to plastic waste, Future Post founder Jerome Wenzlick took what was destined for the landfill and turned it into an upright business venture that’s gone from strength to strength.
    Future Post now repurpose a small part of the thousands of tonnes of plastic that is no longer used into fence posts for the primary industry.

    China stopped buying the recycled plastic here in the US. So the price plummeted. The recycling centers stopped collecting because it became too costly to separate. So now the collected plastics go to the regular landfill. Most of the public is unaware of this and still separate it at home.

      California still recycled my plastics. I don't see them stopping such an important task.

      Most plastics are not recyclable. It's a dirty little secret. The whole recycling movement isn't about saving the earth, people or resources. Rather, it is about governments and NGOs conditioning people to be controlled at every level of society. @@heatherk8931

    The European mindset is still totally preoccupied with fencing everything off.
