Plastic pavement to curb waste


Ninety percent of the plastic we use ends up in landfills, or in the world's oceans.


Now, a Scottish firm has invented a way to recycle that hard-to-use plastic for a role that requires durability: paving roads and highways.


The driveway at Christopher Boyle's 17th-century English estate used the equivalent of 750,000 plastic bags and bottles ground up along with other hard-to-recycle plastic.


"It has all the ecological, environmental benefits, but to your ordinary punter, you don't see any difference at all," Boyle said.
