Wouldn%26#039;t recycling plastic lower gas prices? Here is my train of thougt:
Plastic is made from pretrorleum.
If we throw away plastic we are throwing away pretroleum
If we are throwing away plastic more pretroleum has to be used to make new plastic (since everything has to be made of plastic these days)
Therefore more and more pretroleum is being used
Less and less is avaliable
Supply and demand - gas (made from pretroleum) prices go up
Or am I just insane or wrong about this?

Scroll down to chapter 9. The author of the book has posted this chapter on line to be read for free. It is an exremely interesting chapter about plastics.

    Keep in mind you must gather up the plastic, then you must transport the plastic, then you must use energy to remake the plastic,
