"2011 was a difficult year for recycled plastics, mostly because of the unpredictability of the Chinese market, which soaks up a lot of U.S. material, mainly on the West Coast. &amp;ldquo;We are so tied to China,&amp;rdquo; says one broker. &amp;ldquo;If people think China isn&amp;rsquo;t going to take a particular material, then prices go down.&amp;rdquo;The end of a year can be a little confusing, as well, where pricing is concerned."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
