Re: [GreenYes] plastic # 5

I guess (Yasmeen found) that the number I gave doesn't work if you're out of state, so you can probably reach them through the compost folks in Santa Clara County at (408) 277-2700 or on the website www.reducewaste.org.
Sorry, but I don't know any details of what they do with the plastic after collection.

What exactly do they do with all the plastic once it's been collected?
Please list specific examples of the vendors that take the stuff.
