In the 1940s, plastics began to be used in large quantities in developed countries. At that time, a person with breadth of vision warned that while plastics bring convenience and variety to human life, it may also become a disaster, and even in the future, it will become a “super garbage” that will permanently pollute our planet. It brings endless trouble and disaster to our environment.
Indeed, today, traces of plastic pollution have been found on the summit of Mount Everest, the highest mountain in the world, the plateau lakes in Mongolia, the deepest underwater world in the vast Pacific Ocean, and even in the inaccessible Antarctic and Arctic waters.
Scientists warn that chemicals contained in or attached to plastic can lead to poisoning, sterility and even genetic mutations in marine life.Evidence shows that the pollution of plastic particles in the ocean is obviously harmful to the growth and reproduction of life. In the experiment, as long as 1% of the experimental material is replaced with plastic, it will directly affect the digestion, respiration, reproduction, blood circulation and even the ability of the experimental animal to store energy to varying degrees.
As a new type of pollutant in the marine environment, human research on the seriousness of the threat of plastic particles to the environment and human body is still in the “primary stage”, but at least it has been confirmed that even if plastic waste is decomposed into ultra-fine plastic Particles, they are still unable to be effectively absorbed by the biological food chain. So they carry toxic substances into every link of the food chain, and finally damage human healthy.
For the general public, a green, thrifty and good life should be advocated. This requires everyone to actively practice garbage classification. At the same time, we should also put down plastic bags, pick up reusable bags, use less disposable products, and establish a green, environmentally friendly, civilized and healthy life. Precisepackage will offer high quality eco friendly bags, such as non woven shopping bag and canvas tote bag. These bags are washable and reusable.
