You want to see the amount of waste we produce consisting only of PVC and PET. Surely there is someone in Ireland that can recycle this stuff in some way......

the local domestic recycling centres I use in Mayo will take PET (I only see it in a hard plastic container form). Don't know about the pvc. Try ringing your local county council, they should be able to tell you what and where they will accept these types of plastic. Maybe REPAK could offer some advice?
