Plastics applications

. Bio-degradable Plastic for Milk Packaging This type of bio-plastic is made up of petroleum. So, this type of bio-plastic also produces CO2 at the time of manufacturing. But this type of bio-plastic degrades automatically in the soil and water within few days to few months depending upon environmental conditions. It helps in waste management, as this type of plastic degrades automatically in the environment and thus no need for incineration process. As per different study reports, when we burn

essential role in our everyday life. For polymers range from plastics, PVC, and Styrofoam to key structures in the human body like DNA and proteins which are key components to the human body that makes it possible for each of us to live and be unique. So with out polymers in our body we would be dead, and with out them in our society it would be a drastically changed for the worse to say the least Polymers are also commonly referred to as plastics so now you can put in to perspective how much we use polymers

When thinking about sociological issues taking place in our society today, issues concerning our environment commonly are not ones we put on the top of the list, however they should be. It is not that any of the other social issues do not matter, but without a world to live on, or an environment to live off of those other issues would not even be taking place. Our environment has been something that we neglect and carelessly use for our own personal economic growth because it is what has been done

Plastic has become a staple, and the use of plastic products is abundant in everyday life even if it is not apparent. The production and use of plastics has increased dramatically over the last sixty years, and a vast majority of plastic being produced is not recovered after it is used. It is clear that much of what we have today would not be possible without plastics, but the fact that it is not biodegradable and toxic creates a product that just takes up a vast amount of space and poisons animals

Plastics and their Environmental Impact – Issues Investigation 1. Describe what plastics are. Plastics are materials that can be moulded into any shape by applying heat and/or pressure while soft but obtain a hard a rigid structure when hardened. Plastics are mainly carbon based and can be made out of materials such as crude oil, plants, minerals, natural gas and coal. Plastics are made up of large molecules called polymers which are made up of shorter compounds called monomers. To make various

who love going to the beach for their daily activities such as surfers and beach users who are on the beach the most. These are the people who have to be on the lookout for any waste that comes across them on the beach such as glass, litter, and plastic bottles that are left out by others that have been on the

Littering simply means throwing away objects on the ground or leaving them lying on the ground instead of disposing them at garbage can, recycling bin or trash container.” (What is Litter?”) It is very concerning that there are only a few people who would like to make a change

ocean currents. This means that whatever synthetic materials end up in the ocean, is brought here. The residents of this island are an environmental preservationist that do everything they can to clean up the waste. But there are billions of tons of plastics and synthetic materials, that they cannot get rid of it all. So instead, the island is covered in piles of trash that kill the birds that rest and mate there. The island is an important spot for a certain species of seagulls that use that land and

Reflection Assignment In the current world of immense technology, increasing population and flourishing economic, investigations have shown that the global economy is outgrowing the earth’s ecosystem. Environmental problems are some of the most vital issues which human being, especially environmentalists, pay significant attention to. As individuals, what we are able to do is to adopt some small but significant changes to reduce our ecological footprints, thus making little but crucial contributions
