Our emotional, psychological, and social well-being are all part of our mental health. It has an impact on how we think, feel, and act in our daily lives. It also influences how we deal with stress, interact with others, and make decisions. Mental health is crucial at all stages of life, from birth to adolescent to adulthood and old age. Raising mental health awareness may help in understanding one’s symptoms, thus receive professional support, and perhaps most significantly, break the stigma surrounding mental illness that keeps so many people suffering in silence. It is not only beneficial to you to be aware of mental health issues. Learning more about mental illnesses can also benefit your family, friends, and workplace.
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.
