More and more plastic is polluting cities, the countryside and oceans. What problems are caused by plastic waste? What can be done to solve this problem?

Nowadays, it has been discussed that polluting agent, which is

plastic

, becomes one of the biggest issues among many environmental activists.

This

material spreads from land to ocean.

Therefore

, in

this

essay, I would like to explain the effects caused by

plastic

waste

as well as the solutions to solve

this

problem.

To begin

with, it is clear that

waste

, especially

plastic

, can cause several problems for our environment. One of the problems is how it threats the underwater species. Based on my knowledge,

for instance

, we can see that many turtles have been strangled to some

plastic

bags and it makes them blind and even death. Another major effect is that the chemical component in

plastic

can cause lung cancer

if it is burnt in the open space.

As a result

,

this

waste

can jeopardize our environment together with our organ systems.

Moreover

, in terms of tackling

this

issue, we need our compassion and conscience to fully take actions. Without those 2 things, the simple notion of 2Rs (recycling and reusing) will be totally useless.

First

of all, one of the practical solutions regarding

this

matter, we can start with small action

such

as doing recycling and reusing. Recycling means to process the

waste

into something useful,

for example

, processing the glass bottle into home decoration, whereas re using does not involve any processes, it simply just use the thing backs, like making a plant pot from a

plastic

bottle. In a nutshell, many organisms and our health can be damaged, because of our man-made

waste

. So, we need to do recycle and reuse in order to lower the damaging level and

also

make our planet clean and safe for many living creatures that live on it.
