Regular readers may recall that I have written a couple of columns in the past predicting that our rubbish dumps/tips will one day become a valuable source of plastics that will replace dwinding fossil fuel resources.

With the rise of EVs, one could be forgiven for thinking that this is becoming increasingly unlikely. Odds are that in a decade or two, ICE-power will be little more than memory and a page in a history book.

Forums are Down
