Plastics
In the video Plastics: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO) John Oliver explains how plastics are harming the planet, why recycling isn’t the solution, and why fixing the problem will be up to not just consumers, but corporations and policymakers.
Only less than nine percent of plastic that is being made gets recycled. That isn’t the because people don’t recycle its just that most things we think are recyclable aren’t That means the plastic ends up as landfill, gets burned or ends up in the ocean. Even worse is that companies that sell these plastics are making adds that push this idea that we (The Consumers) are to blame.
I agree with everything John Oliver has said. I think that the root of the problem are really the corporations because for them maximizing profit is everything. They know what they are doing is harming many people but still they procced to do it. In any case, I think the solution is to strictly ban single-use plastic packaging and introduce EPR laws to every country, but this sadly seems unrealistic. Even if we had the ban we still have to deal with the already existing plastic waste
