B:主要是塑料制品。塑料制品不能生物降解,它們在外界不容易分解,因此不應該扔掉。
A: How is plastic recycled, then?
A:那么是怎么對塑料制品進行循環(huán)利用的?
B: Well, there are basically two methods. One is to break down the chemicals in the plastic into smaller chemical particles. These can then be used in the production of new chemicals.

A:Is that the method you use here?
A:你們這里使用這種方式嗎?
B: No, we don't do that here. We recycle polyethylene and we make it into other products.
