What's worse than living next to a cement kiln? Living next to a cement kiln burning plastic! And being rewarded with plastic credits that allow consumer goods companies to greenwash their image with consumers: www.source-material.org/plastic-cred...

First post on the new app fully deserves to be this excellent investigation. Especially timely with the plastic treaty negotiations next week where these guys will be out in full force.
