This is a cool form of reuse, but there's got to be cleaner ways to do it.

Yeah pyrolysis of plastic to fuel is clever but produces hella toxic emissions without proper filtration - check out some power stations on gearscouts.com that use solar instead which would be way cleaner for their situation.

I misread that as “Gazans Make Diesel From Plastic And Genocide” and I was very curious for a moment.

Props to them regardless.
