Essentially, polypropylene benefits the environment in various aspects. Because it is a thermoplastic, it can be melted countless times. At the same time, it has a high melting point of 170oC so it can be sterilized and used repeatedly in a hospital setting:

ex: oxygen masks. Its durability and high tensile strength mean that it does not need to be replaced on a daily basis. All in all, it benefits the environment at its physical properties allow it to be used over and over again. :)
