- Humans eat plastic-contaminated seafood, consume plastic via packaging => 
- We absorb plastic through our clothes => the worst fabric for the skin
- We breathe plastic when due to poor waste management

2. Groundwater pollution
- Leaking plastics and waste contaminate the water, making them susceptible to leaking environment toxins.
- Terrible consequences on many marine species and people

3. Land Pollution: the wind caries and deposits plastic from one place to another, increasing the land litter.

4. Air Pollution:  burning of plastic in the open air => release of poisonous chemicals.

Plastics that act as pollutants are categorized by size into micro-, meso-, or macro debris.]]> 2022-03-07 02:24:56 UTC https://padlet.com/chuclinh190305/9gnx3ti56c6o2gw/wish/2080602380 linhhanguyen2110 https://padlet.com/chuclinh190305/9gnx3ti56c6o2gw/wish/2080606538 - Overusage in daily life and manufacture
+, Reason: affordable and durable 
- Slow decomposition rate
- Urbanization and Population Growth 
+, leads to a higher demand on  cheaper and readily available materials
- The pathways:
+, Water: transports plastic to the sea
+, Wind: blows plastic from landfills 
- The disposal of plastic and garbage:
+, Discarded plastic items are immediately replaced by other plastic products -> reckless
+, Plastic: complex chemical composition-> durable, not easy to break down
+, Recycling: 
     (-) Not enough to reduce the amount of plastic littered 
     (-) Could lead to the release of plastic irritants and harmful chemicals into the environment
