Good news for Anchorage is Alaska Plastic Recovery, a new company that takes most kinds of plastic and manufactures it into lumber. It is amazing, and I am so glad to be able to collect our household plastic to donate to a company that has a solution to the huge waste of plastics rather than adding to the landfill with food containers, plastic bags, filmy wraps, and just about any kind of plastic that it is hard to avoid in products we buy.
