Fire in Brijest - a predictable result of recycling stupidity?

[FlatAssembler]

Because the plastics to be recycled are brought to collection points.

But why does it take the government to do that? Why are there are no private companies doing that?

You said the fire wouldn’t have happened if there were no regulations on plastics recycling.

Please try to understand it: regulation is different from a subsidy. Subsidy is trying to make something more profitable, regulation usually (if not always) makes something less profitable.

Should food regulations be abolished?

Well, there is some sensible regulation. Probably any regulation that reduces the massive use of antibiotics in the egg industry is a sensible regulation. However, most regulation is not like that, and most regulation should be abolished.

Can you provide a list of plastic recycling plants that have caught fire?

Well, no, but I assume that's common. The only plastic recycling plant that I know about (the one in Brijest) has caught fire. Not only once, but three times in the past 10 years: now, in 2015 and in 2016. https://sib.net.hr/vijesti/osijek/439239...16-godine/
