The world is rapidly becoming a 'plastic made planet'

Online Desk Increasingly spreading rapidly in more production and open nature of plastic, the alarming rate is increasing.
According to US scientists, the amount of plastic produced so far is 8.3 billion tons. And by the year 2050, the amount of plastic will stand 12 billion tonnes. No doubt plastic is a very surprising element.

Due to its durability and utility, the production rate of this item is more than that made of humans, without steel, cement and bricks, and everything else. And the number is 8.3 billion tons! Which is equal to 25,000 Empire State Building in New York. Or equivalent to 1 billion elephant weight.

And about 79 percent of this huge amount of plastic is spread out in open nature. The environment is being damaged in plastic waste day by day.

Dr. Roland Gayer, an expert, told the BBC: "The world will soon become a plastic made planet, and if we do not want it, then the decision will be made in the use of plastic made products," he says.

Recently a group of University of California publishers published a paper on the production and use and pollution of plastic industrial ecologists.

And it shows that at least half of this huge plastic product has been produced in the last 13 years.

Canceled plastic recycling was only 9 percent. 12 percent have been burnt down and the rest has spread in nature. The ocean waves spread in the ocean Research has shown that recycling and recycling rates were 30 percent in Europe in 2014. The lowest recycling in the United States, only 9 percent. And this production has increased since the 1950's.

Since plastic products are not perishable, experts say that it does not need to be applied to excessive heat.

But more importantly, it is necessary to make the necessary precision of plastic and then go to its production. And it requires an integrated discussion.
