Plastic in itself doesn't cause Global Warming.
When we fail to recycle plastics we force manufacturers to use more oil to make more plastic. The factories use energy, which is usually generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). This burning releases carbon dioxide (CO2), a greenhouse gas which is causing Global Warming.
