Lego Picks More Expensive Renewable Plastic Over Cheaper Fossil Fuels

Lego provided an update in its efforts to move away from fossil fuels in its bricks. According to Reuters, the toymaker said it is on pace to switch to a pricier recycled and renewable plastic by 2032, having secured long-term agreements with producers.

The company has already evaluated more than 600 materials in an effort to replace oil in its bricks by 2030. Previously, Lego attempted to substitute its plastic with a material derived from recycled plastic bottles.
