Under normal conditions, plastic melts as it burns, and can give off toxic chemicals. While these emissions are not very harmful to the environment overall, inhalation can be very dangerous until the fumes dissipate. The physical melting is also hazardous due to bubbling and spattering, and there is substantial tar residue from incomplete combustion.
