We don\u2019t often tend to speak a lot about how climate change and global warming are caused by the production of material things. More particularly, PLASTICS. <\/p> <\/p>\nPlastics are everywhere. It is a cheap, durable and lightweight alternative to almost everything related to the manufacturing industry. It is replacing steel and metal components in automobiles, and replacing glass in water containers etc. The emissions during manufacturing are less than a lot of other materials, but it is still a lot. Consider 500 million tons of Carbon Dioxide released every year.<\/p> <\/p>Concerns get more serious as animals\u2019 lives intervene in the long lived life cycle of plastic, marine organisms being the most affected. An estimated 400,000 marine mammals perish annually due to accumulation of plastic in oceans by either \n\nentanglement, where it dies due to starvation or its inability to escape predators, or by ingestion, where the digestive tract or wind pipe is blocked. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1458918926604","data":"56f5562e44076"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1458919156664","data":" Ingestion can also linger in the stomach and create this false sense of fullness that leads the animal to starve to death. Cases of this have been reported for land animals as well, where plastic is ingested, not digested and stay in the stomach for a long time. Soil also loses its fertility & this affects the economy. <\/p> <\/p>\n\n\nOne way or another, directly or indirectly, plastics affect our lives silently. Plastics find their way into every part of human life; food packaging, water bottles and containers, construction, home electrical appliances, you name it, plastic has been there. We need solutions now, before it\u2019s too late.<\/p> <\/p> \n\nWell, one possible solution is to give up plastic, but ask yourself, can you truly do that? None of us can. Another is to limit its use. Still seems like too much to give up, right? Well, we can always recycle, can\u2019t we? That would greatly decrease the emissions released during manufacturing, but what for? There always needs to be some \u2019push\u2019 factor to encourage people to do it.<\/p> <\/p>That\u2019s where our latest project comes in. Aiming to be set up in schools and parks, we want to spread awareness on the dangers of plastic, and directly encourage people to recycle plastics with our Rewarding Recycling Machine.<\/p> <\/p>However, this can only be achieved with the encouragement and support of the government, and the involvement and cooperation of the society. I feel the awareness should start from schools in an encouraging, motivating & fun way. School is the best place to learn, as kids learn the habit at an early age where they can continue this habit to improve future generations.<\/p> <\/p>It\u2019s not only wildlife & marine life at stake, we are NEXT !!!<\/p>Or already we are, time to think err.. ACT !!!<\/p>"}]
