Japan is wild for this, but also pretty good at recycling plastic in general.

Bananas are often wrapped individually for sale. You buy a box of biscuits and they're often individually wrapped in plastic etc.

Japan recycles but also a whole bunch of their waste is incinerated. I think they super-heat it to reduce emissions but guessing that also costs energy which also secondarily causes emissions.

It is energy positive. Their incineration plants provide power.

Most of that plastic can't be recycled so it's probably being burned or thrown away.

Japan incinerates most of their plastic.
