We should use disposables that are biodegradable to reduce plastic e=waste getting washed into the oceans and onto other islands. We can also decrease the number of disposables used by giving incentives to those people who bring their containers or charge those who request for disposable utensils. We lastly can encourage people to recycle their disposables after use to reduce and ultimately eliminate plastic waste.
Food and beverage containers accounted for an estimated 90 per cent of about 28,500 tonnes of polystyrene waste collected in 2014 in cities like New York City. Many of us in Singapore eat out at least once a week, and we almost always take away our food back home. According to the NEA, we threw away almost 789,000 tonnes of plastic waste, but only 9% of that was recycled. 
People have started to use more of degradable polymers. However, polymers when burnt leaves behind up to 40% of itself behind as ashes and it's hard to dispose of. Incineration is also not a good solution as burning plastics and polymers produce a lot of harmful and greenhouse gasses such as carbon dioxide. This would then worsen the current state of global warming. Therefore, biodegradable materials are the way to go as in the long run, if we continue using plastics that are non-bio degradable, our future generation may not be able to experience the Earth as it is now.

Many of us in Singapore eat out at least once a week, and we almost always take away our food back home. According to the NEA, we threw away almost 789,000 tonnes of plastic waste, but only 9% of that was recycled. 
People have started to use more of degradable polymers. However, polymers when burnt leaves behind up to 40% of itself behind as ashes and it's hard to dispose of. Incineration is also not a good solution as burning plastics and polymers produce a lot of harmful and greenhouse gasses such as carbon dioxide. This would then worsen the current state of global warming. Therefore, biodegradable materials are the way to go as in the long run, if we continue using plastics that are non-bio degradable, our future generation may not be able to experience the Earth as it is now.

We should use disposables that are biodegradable to reduce plastic e=waste getting washed into the oceans and onto other islands. We can also decrease the number of disposables used by giving incentives to those people who bring their containers or charge those who request for disposable utensils. We lastly can encourage people to recycle their disposables after use to reduce and ultimately eliminate plastic waste.
Food and beverage containers accounted for an estimated 90 per cent of about 28,500 tonnes of polystyrene waste collected in 2014 in cities like New York City.

We should use disposables that are biodegradable to reduce plastic e=waste getting washed into the oceans and onto other islands. We can also decrease the number of disposables used by giving incentives to those people who bring their containers or charge those who request for disposable utensils. We lastly can encourage people to recycle their disposables after use to reduce and ultimately eliminate plastic waste.
Food and beverage containers accounted for an estimated 90 per cent of about 28,500 tonnes of polystyrene waste collected in 2014 in cities like New York City. Many of us in Singapore eat out at least once a week, and we almost always take away our food back home. According to the NEA, we threw away almost 789,000 tonnes of plastic waste, but only 9% of that was recycled. 
People have started to use more of degradable polymers. However, polymers when burnt leaves behind up to 40% of itself behind as ashes and it's hard to dispose of. Incineration is also not a good solution as burning plastics and polymers produce a lot of harmful and greenhouse gasses such as carbon dioxide. This would then worsen the current state of global warming. Therefore, biodegradable materials are the way to go as in the long run, if we continue using plastics that are non-bio degradable, our future generation may not be able to experience the Earth as it is now.

Food and beverage containers accounted for an estimated 90 per cent of about 28,500 tonnes of polystyrene waste collected in 2014 in cities like New York City. Many of us in Singapore eat out at least once a week, and we almost always take away our food back home. According to the NEA, we threw away almost 789,000 tonnes of plastic waste, but only 9% of that was recycled. 
People have started to use more of degradable polymers. However, polymers when burnt leaves behind up to 40% of itself behind as ashes and it's hard to dispose of. Incineration is also not a good solution as burning plastics and polymers produce a lot of harmful and greenhouse gasses such as carbon dioxide. This would then worsen the current state of global warming. Therefore, biodegradable materials are the way to go as in the long run, if we continue using plastics that are non-bio degradable, our future generation may not be able to experience the Earth as it is now.

We should use disposables that are biodegradable to reduce plastic e=waste getting washed into the oceans and onto other islands. We can also decrease the number of disposables used by giving incentives to those people who bring their containers or charge those who request for disposable utensils. We lastly can encourage people to recycle their disposables after use to reduce and ultimately eliminate plastic waste.
