RECYCLING

One of Ruth’s impossible recycling ideas is to convert plastic waste into energy, which is then used to power a new form of healing.

This is an oil made from waste plastic that is used as a feedstock to make new plastics, and helps to create a circular plastic economy. This helps reduce plastic waste in landfills and oceans.
