SEÚL, Nov 22 (Reuters) – South South Korea has prepared international elogies for them to recycle materials, but at the same time they were preparing for conversations to begin global negotiations with plastic residues, and experts confirmed that el plantation del- Pais Pone de Manificesto Sus Limites.

When INC-5-style talk began early in Busan, one might have expected the debate to begin as a result of ONU’s operation, which would limit the candidad of plastic that would be manufactured.

The detractors of this plant, between what is happening to the large producers of plastic and petrochemicals like Arabia, Saudi Arabia and China, can argue in previous years that los paise deberianes are centered in asuntos menos polemicos, like gestures over the remains of plastic.

South Korea has confirmed it recycles 73% of its plastic waste, 5% to 6% in US states, and the country could be used as a model for waste collection plantations.

La revista bimensual MIT Technology Review, released in South Korea as the “world’s best economy” and the only Asian country in 10 Asian countries in 2022.

Without an embargo, some media-ambiental activists and members of the residue action sector argue that de-recycling ciphers do not fit the bill.

73% percent said that South Korea “is a false figure because only the remains of plastic that ended up in the recycling plantation; we do not say if they are recycled, burned or deposited in vertederos,” firm So Hee-won, a researcher for the activist group local Center on climate change.

Greenpeace estimates that South Korea has recovered 27% of its total plastic waste. The Ministry of the Environment confirmed that residue definitions, disposal methods and residue calculations varied from place to place, making it difficult to provide a single assessment.

South Korea’s plastic waste production increased by 9.6 million tons in 2019 and 12.6 million tons in 2022, representing a 31% increase in the previous three years in terms of the increase in plastic food boxes, regalos and other Internet users , which will spread during the pandemic, activists continue.

This plastic has no value, so it continues to work in industry, government and activists, and this is very important for economic purposes.

At the Asan plastic recycling center, located 85 kilometers from Seoul, there is a mountain of 19,000 tons of leftover plastic that was not ultimately processed by Triturado, which gives off a night color. In some areas the owner is said to have money problems, but could not get more details.

“You will probably need more than 2,000 or 3,000 million won (between $1.43 million and $2.14 million) for a refund,” said an Asana regional government official. “If you think the owner can’t pay, then cleanup is a priority for us.”

Reuters received information that more than 90% of plastic residues were destroyed or incinerated, which is not a form of reuse, at the start of the 2017 study.
