Break It Down, Sustainably! Discussion & Q&A

There will be a competition to see who can devise a plan to break down different types of plastics without releasing or minimizing the release of toxic substances into the environment, using the most environmentally efficient methods with respect to both economic feasibility and common practicality (world-wide considerations included).
Contestants (volunteer members of this group) will choose from the following common difficult to recycle substances toxic to the environment, presenting at least seven unique methods for any combination of the seven types of recyclable plastics from the six listed categories:
1. PETE - Polyethylene Terephthalate
2. HDPE and LDPE - High Density and Low Density Polyethylene
3. PVC - Polyvinyl Chloride
4. PP - Polypropylene
5. PS - Polystyrene
6. Other -- acrylic, polycarbonate, polyactic fibers, nylon, fiberglass, etc...
*Each method presented should to the writer's best ability work in tandem with the other methods not as ambiguously meritable alternatives but as their own distinct solutions.
*All sources must be sited via a reference slide (with APA citations)
Reward --
50% of the funds raised from April 15th to May 15th, 2024 + $100
and Honorable mention in the zoom presentation about the results of the contest on May 17th, time to be announced.
