Information Is BeautifulDid you know there are 7 main types of plastic? Some (1,2,4) are recyclable ♻️ None of biodegradable :(

Artemis@infobeautiful If one of your main types is "other", then there isn't "7 main types".

DronnThere are biodegradable plastics not based on petrol. We have shopping bags made of These Here and there.
Raven Luni@infobeautiful Wrong in terms of categorisation but not wrong about the environmental impact
