Plastic Pollution: How Humans are Turning the World into Plastic

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Through the EU's Directive on single-use plastics, different measures are being applied to different products. These measures are proportionate and tailored to get the most effective results, and also take into account if more sustainable alternatives are available.

The 10 items being addressed by the Directive are

Cotton bud sticks

Cutlery, plates, straws and stirrers

Balloons and sticks for balloons

Food containers

Cups for beverages

Beverage containers

Cigarette butts

Plastic bags

Packets and wrappers

Wet wipes and sanitary items

Where sustainable alternatives are easily available and affordable, single-use plastic products cannot be placed on the markets of EU Member States. This applies to cotton bud sticks, cutlery, plates, straws, stirrers, and sticks for balloons. It will also apply to cups, food and beverage containers made of expanded polystyrene, and on all products made of oxo-degradable plastic.

For other single-use plastic products, the EU is focusing on limiting their use through

reducing consumption through awareness-raising measures

introducing design requirements, such as a requirements to connect caps to bottles

introducing labelling requirements, to inform consumers about the plastic content of products, disposal options that are to be avoided, and harm done to nature if the products are littered in the environment

introducing waste management and clean-up obligations for producers, including Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) schemes

Specific targets include

a 77% separate collection target for plastic bottles by 2025 - increasing to 90% by 2029

incorporating 25% of recycled plastic in PET beverage bottles from 2025, and 30% in all plastic beverage bottles from 2030

How does plastic harm the environment? Plastic sticks around in the environment for ages, threatening wildlife and spreading toxins. Plastic also contributes to global warming. Almost all plastics are made from chemicals that come from the production of planet-warming fuels (gas, oil and even coal).

Plastic bags have a useful life of about 12 to 25 minutes. Instead of killing poor animals you can just recycle ♻️.

How does plastic harm the environment? Plastic sticks around in the environment for ages, threatening wildlife and spreading toxins. Plastic also contributes to global warming. Almost all plastics are made from chemicals that come from the production of planet-warming fuels (gas, oil and even coal) BUT Lighter weight than competing materials reduces fuel consumption during transportation. Good safety and hygiene properties for food packaging. Durability and longevity. Resistance to chemicals, water and impact.16 Aug 2020.
