More than 60 million plastic water bottles go into landfills and incinerators every day, according to the Container Recycling Institute.

Researchers at Virginia Tech have found a way to upcycle plastic into soap. Around 120 grams to 130 grams of plastic can make 100 grams of soap.

      Not a dumb question at all. It’s completely reasonable to want to know if there will be microplastics left over in the process.
