Plastic use and its harmful aspects in everyday life



Source

Plastic. One of the most widely used substances in our daily life. Which is engaging in all areas of our lives. We use plastic in almost every aspect of our daily lives. But most people do not know how harmful the plastic is doing to us? One of the main reasons for the loss of the environment is plastic. Because of our excessive use of plasticity, the environment and the Animals has to pay the extreme price. The demand for plastics is available in a variety of ways and is being increasing day by day. Our environment is facing extreme problems for the uncontrolled use of plastic.Smaller sizes of plastic are increasing in different parts of life such as Cotton Buddy, Straw, One Time Glass, soft drinks bottle, bottle slippers, chocolate packets, jugs, food water glasses etc. These small plastics have made big problems.

Plastic harm us in many ways.Plastic damages our land, water and animals.Now discuss these issues below.

Land Damage

Uncontrolled use of plastic is polluting the ground in many ways. We use about 50 percent of the amount of plastic used in daily life to throw it out. That means we have become accustomed to using uninterrupted plastic without considering any kind of use of plastic. When we put polythene on the ground, it does not mix with the soil. As a result, when we cultivate, production is wasted. And the quality of the land gets ruined every day. As a result, we are being financially affected. About one-25th of the production of crop are lost due to polythene. Which is really very sad.

Water Damage

There are more than 35 million tons of plastic pollution worldwide every year and most of it is the end destination of water. Sea scientist Sheri Lippiat says, "We are throwing two pounds of plastic in the sea against every 1 pound tuna fish from the sea. The senior policy officer of the European Environment Bureau, Carsten Wachhard says, the main items on the coast are garbage, which are plastic bottles, straw and hygiene products.
This is a big problem, because the marine creatures and birds have swallowed the plastic; Which are killing them gradually Ocean Conservation says they have found plastic presence in more than 60 percent of all types of marine birds and 100 percent of marine turtle species.

Beautiful .. Thanks for the words, great work
Great post from you
Thanks for sharing

Great post...we can't forget about the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.

Seventy-nine thousand tons of plastic debris, in the form of 1.8 trillion pieces, now occupy an area three times the size of France in the Pacific Ocean between California and Hawaii. Surveys estimates that the mass of plastic contained there is four to 16 times larger than previously supposed, and it is continuing to accumulate because of ocean currents and careless humans both onshore and offshore

nice one .. Thanks for your input 👍

Very Helpful post. Thanks

Back to a world without plastic. Imagine all the plastic just disappear: you will start feeling naked and discover that most of your clothes are gone. Your computer will not start and in the kitchen you will miss all kinds of things that are made of plastic. Your car looks crazy and when you hear your toddler crying it is because all his toys just disappear...

I totally agree that plastic harms our planet but it will be a big sacrifice for the human kind (not for the animals or plants :) ) to give up all the daily used plastic materials !

I put a link to @rishan , referring to this post and to the above link in my latest post about micro-plastics. So more people will be aware of the plastic pollution.

Thanks for sharing this article and it is surely an interesting website! I already see many supermarkets forbid the plastic bags. I hope it will all be replaced very soon with a more ecological material!

Great post to save environment from pollution basically Plastics are non-biodegradable and also harmful for human being because these are composed of bisphenol compound that is very hazardous and can cause many problems in health but unfortunately we use plastic for food packaging as an alternative of glass I appreciate your post keep it up @rishan

Strongly agree with you. People are using plastic bags instead of paper carrier bags, since ages without understanding its harmful effects on the environment system.

The land is not the inheritance of our parents but the loan of our children and even people still do not understand it. I believe that once the man finishes destroying himself ... in that moment a new man will appear ... A man that will love the earth, that will love animals, nature ... I always dreamed of founding an ecological school, which could not be in casapueblo, I always dreamed that young people would have to come together to discuss essential issues and among them. .. Respect for nature, because it is the great garden that we have, is our big house.

I agree. I co founded a preschool. You can see its blog @mchbaycitymi. Also, I will follow you with my personal blog (@marcuantoniu26) and my medical blog @secondmedicalop

I think some countries are now inventing eatable plastic which is not really a plastic.

Well...this one is good post...People should more aware about this. Plastic is too much cost to bear (not in money of course). Indoneshia and Bangladesh are having some alternatives against it. We are trying to replace plastic bag to jute. This will result incredible if we can succeed.
