If burning plastics being a concern, how can you have no problems burning plastics? If it being a concern, don't you think some short of action should be done. Recycle plastics right! We all don't know how much is burned in every village and city, unless some kind of (State) or(Nation-wide) study is done? Yes, burning plastics should be causing alot of concern. Burning it emits toxic pollutants, greenhouse gases into our atmosphere, which gets caught in the ozone. Another cause to Global Climate change. I think another concern would be costs of petroleum, the raw material that is chemically altered to form commercial plastics. Maybe if we recycled plastics more often, it wouldn't be such a concern. Im sure if you can't breath when plastic being burned, im sure we won't either.
