Fantastic Plastic an Optimistic Prospect Introduction A. Background of the study A plastic is a type of synthetic or man-made polymer; similar in many ways to natural resins found in trees and other plants. Webster’s Dictionary defines polymers as: any of various complex organic compounds produced by polymerization‚ capable of being molded‚ extruded‚ cast into various shapes and films‚ or drawn into filaments and then used as textile fibers. Plastics are durable that is why most of

Plastic in Our Oceans 46‚000 pieces of plastic per square mile make up 90% of our ocean’s trash accumulation (Nichol‚ 2012‚ Plastics‚ like Diamonds‚ are forever‚ para. 1). Within the areas‚ many animals will either ingest‚ become entangled in‚ or even die due to the high plastic amounts. Nearly 267 species are harmed by plastic (Nichol‚ 2012‚ Fast Facts). With such deadly effects due to yearly accumulation‚ the banning of plastic bags and reduction of usage in a household will improve overall health

Plastic and Environment A plastic material is any of a wide range of synthetic or semi-synthetic organic solids that are moldable. Plastics are typically organic polymers of high molecular mass‚ but they often contain other substances. They are usually synthetic‚ most commonly derived from petrochemicals‚ but many are partially natural. Composition Most plastics contain organic polymers. The vast majority of these polymers are based on chains of carbon atoms alone or with oxygen‚ sulfur‚ or nitrogen
