Unanswered questions:
1) Is the project on schedule?
2) Is this stockpile unexpected or unmanageable?

The only remotely substantive part of the article has nothing to do with Airtags and is a shallow, uncited critique of an Exxon technology. It isn't clear if the upcoming Cyclix facility even plans to use this Exxon technology.
> One more issue that many environmental advocates raise is that the advanced recycling technology that Exxon claims to have made for recycling all kinds of plastic isn’t exactly effective.
Who are these environmental advocates you cite? What were their actual words? What does "exactly effective" mean here?
> They would also likely demand a lot of fossil fuels to superheat the recyclables, which adds more greenhouse gas emissions.
Likely? According to who? Based on what information? Texas has abundant renewable energy, where's the evidence that this requires fossil fuels?
This is a trash piece that does not pass the sniff test. It is just shallow, lazy sensationalism that plays to anti-sustainability cynicism. Don't waste your click.
