关于我们
America’s Plastic Makers? are the leading U.S. producers of modern plastic materials used to make products that are addressing society’s greatest challenges. Our materials power innovations that improve our lives by protecting our environment, lowering greenhouse gas emissions, using fewer resources and contributing to nearly every sector of our economy. We’ve set goals of making 100% of plastics packaging recyclable or recoverable by 2030 and ensuring 100% of plastic packaging is reused, recycled or recovered by 2040. We are promoting, advocating and building towards a more sustainable future for our planet while also innovating new technologies and infrastructure to reduce waste.

#DYK: Homes and buildings use ~40% of America’s energy, mostly for heating and cooling. Unfortunately, poor insulation and leaky homes/buildings allow a lot of that energy to be wasted. Ross Eisenberg explains how high-performance insulation and other upgrades – often made with durable plastic – can help reduce emissions, increase energy efficiency, and save money. ??
Check out my new article to see why energy efficiency upgrades are a smart, cost-effective investment for homeowners and the planet. #EnergySavings #ClimateSolutions #EnergyEfficiency #Sustainability
