> “we can–and must–replace non-recyclable materials on the > market with biodegradable alternatives”. a transformation is taking place in our world today that is changing the way we view our packaging and how it is affecting our planet. not. long-ago plastic was a useful but inane commodity that pas*ed through our lives effortlessly. overused on a mas*ive scale and discarded in a. similar vein. what began as a concern then rapidly materialised into a huge problem. estimates report that a mas*ive 8 million tons of. plastic waste ends up in our oceans each year. by 2050 our marine environment will contain more plastic than fish unless something is. done dramatically to reduce this. it can take up to 1000 years for plastic to decompose, gradually breaking down into microscopic pieces.. so small that traces of plastic have been found in organisms as tiny as zooplankton which in turn finds its way into a food chain that. comprehends the mess we are currently in and the implications of what will happen if we do nothing. no-one stands to gain from taking no. action. ultimately, everyone on this planet will be affected, regardless of whether you eat seafood or not and for generations to. come. the severity of the situation has fortunately prompted a response from a number of individuals and organizations. the ellen. because of this initiative, mars, m&s, pepsico, the coca-cola company, unilever, and werner & mertz have pledged to use 100% reusable,. this has also led to an increase in mainstream media coverage like sky’s ocean rescue campaign resulting in a lot more public. raising public awareness appears to be the key. it is only with the support and pressure from public voters that a shift in policies. determined by politicians and business leaders will take place. normal people make a mas*ive difference, more so than we realise. not only. with shaping these policies but also with the little changes we can make in our day to day lives.
