Start-up devours pollution with new plastic recycling method

Our appetite for plastic continues unabated. But rather than make more, what if we could make do with what we have?

It's estimated only 9% of plastic ever created has been recycled. But with the help of a chemical process, 23-year-old Canadian Miranda Wang and her company BioCellection want to change that.
