The Plastic Disease Killing Our Planet
This article is a deeper dive into our plastic production, consumption and waste management problem and how it’s destroying our planet.
I am revolted, disgusted, disturbed and hurt.
I see a disease spreading across our planet and it’s shaken me to my core, plastic pollution is slowly killing our Earth.
I am a huge documentary nerd and it seems like every time I watch a really good documentary my life changes and it did.
I watched The Plastic Pollution (a great documentary I recommend everyone watch) one night from the comfort of my home and suddenly all I could think about was plastics.
I am going to be writing on this topic a lot more but in this article I want to give an introduction to this multi-faceted problem and share my frustration with people on the internet.
I hate seeing our beautiful planet degrade and so much unnecessary suffering for humans and animals.
Our Dependency on Plastics
I was taking a normal walk outside but this time I tried something different, I played a mini game of iSpy with myself to find as many plastic things as I could.
