To LEGO : Please transition to recycled plastic

LEGO produces billions of these plastic pieces every year. BILLIONS. The plastic used in Lego is mostly acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, or ABS. Acrylonitrile is produced from propylene and ammonia; butadiene is a petroleum hydrocarbon and styrene monomers are derived from coal. It%u2019s quite a chemical and fossil fuel cocktail.

Why not a more eco.friendly approach? At the very least, recycled plastic. Maybe a program for schools--collect your plastic and we'll buy it from you to create more Legos?
