- - - - Prevents the release of toxic gas
      - Is a cheap option of disposing of polymers for the local council
    - - Limited space
      - Suitable places to build and use landfills get filled up relatively quickly so new space needs to be found
      - The conditions at landfill sites mean that the polymers release natural gas into the atmosphere which contributes to the greenhouse affect and climate change
      - The hazardous chemicals released from certain waste put into landfills can pollute the soil, such as chemicals from batteries
      - Most of the materials being thrown away can be reused or recycled, such as plastics, paper, metals and glass
  - - - Heat is used to produce electricity
      - Prevents a build up of polymers in the environment
    - - CO2 is produced during the process and pollutes the environment
      - Toxic gases are produced from the polymers unless they are incinerated at a very high temperature, which would take a lot of money and energy
      - Produces CO and carbon particulates - contributes to global warming.
- - - - can also be mixed in with other products such as dyes and paints
      - can be very costly
        
        this means polymers that could be recycled end up in landfill
  - - - many products contain recyclable
    - - can be done multiple times, just like ur mum GOTTEM GUD
