First and foremost, its production consumes significant amounts of fossil fuels, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions and climate change. Plastic waste, which is often not biodegradable, accumulates in landfills and ecosystems, causing pollution and harm to wildlife. Plastic debris in the oceans poses a severe threat to marine life and ecosystems, with microplastics infiltrating the food chain. Moreover, the entire lifecycle of plastic, from production to disposal, involves various environmental hazards, such as chemical pollution and habitat destruction.
