A rough "back of the envelope" calculation based on 2005 figures estimates that the produced volume of polyethene (PE) and polypropene (PP; together ca. 110 million tons) would be sufficient to build 44 polyolefin pyramids the size of Khufu's great pyramid at Giza each year, see: J. R. Severn, J. C. Chadwick, R. Duchateau, N. Friederichs, Client Rev. 2005, 105, 4073-4147.
