Avoid Plastic & Save Environment
Perils in the consumption of plastic!
In current days, it is next to
impossible to stop using plastics. In the last few decades, usage of
plastic has expanded beyond what the early developers might ever have
thought about it. However, we can find plastics that are harmless for
the environment. While creation of plastic has added an important level
of convenience to daily life, it also carries the risk of severe health
challenges.
From food and children’s toys to
automobiles and beverage containers, we are bloated by plastic. And
sadly, we have begun to pay a heavy price for this modern-day
convenience.
Fortunately, scientists are inventing a
number of alternative plastic-type products that are nontoxic and
biodegradable such as containers built with corn and other food-based
animals.
What makes plastic so dangerous?
Bisphenol a (BPA) is an industrial
additive used in making many plastic products that make the plastic
harder. Once upon a time, plastic was considered to be safe. In the
changing scenario, the evidence points out that BPA is harmful since it
accumulates into the body over time. It is essential to avoid using
products that contain these compounds.
BPAs exist in almost everything from
water bottles to soda cans to coffee cup lids to prepackaged food
containers, plastic cups, and grocery and gas station receipts.
Different metal water bottles, especially those manufactured with
aluminium, are lined with epoxy resins that consist of BPA to combat
decomposition.
