This fuel is 50% plastic — and it’s slipping through a loophole in international waste law
From the linked article (emphasis mine):
"Every year, an unknown but potentially large amount of plastic waste continues to be traded in the form of “refuse-derived fuel,” or RDF, ground-up packaging and industrial plastic waste that gets mixed with scrap wood and paper in order to be burned for energy."
If the exhaust is properly filtered then this is better than a landfill.
