Do you know exactly how much PVC-based plastic tubing affects the environment? The impact is NOTHING compared to the rate at which deforestation and over-fishing are happening now. Why not concentrate on that? I mean, don't you think big commercial chemical labs who use Tygon in vast quantities know how to dispose of it properly? There are likely ordinances that dictate how tubing that carried chemical agents can be disposed of, even after sterilization in an autoclave. I'm sure they don't just walk down to the BP and toss nine thousand feet of old tubing in a dumpster.
