I mean read the first line: "Incineration of plastic waste in an open field"
I am not advocating an "open field". Incinerate it for energy, in a properly designed incinerator (which is existing technology in wide use). That article is talking about waste disposal, I'm talking about using it as fuel.
Also proper incineration can only be done in an incinerator, which burn much hotter and more completely than any pile of trash lit on fire. This is particularly important with plastics, where you really want to reach temperatures high enough to crack the dioxins apart.
