Plastic garbage is a major problem that affects people all around the world. Even though there is no denying that plastic has numerous advantages in our culture, it is not enough to claim that we use it excessively without considering the effects. But why should we use less plastic, and what are the true consequences?
Here are some reasons why we should minimize our use of plastic:
Plastic production necessitates a tremendous amount of energy and resources, thus reducing its use is critical. This adds to global warming by causing carbon emissions.
Plastic recycling is inefficient; only 9% of all plastic generated has been recycled. Around 60% of it ends up in landfills or the ocean. It remains there for thousands of years, converting into “microplastic” and leaking into our drinking water and food supply.
