Dear Don Baker,

Perhaps the reason the plastic recycling associations haven't posted polystyrene recycling statistic since 1994 is that they're embarrassed by their lack of progress. According to EPA statistics, in 1998 approximately 10,000 tons were recycled, a negligible percentage of not even one percent. According to draft figures for the year 2000 and the rate of polystyrene recycling still hasn't reached one percent.
