Drawbacks of plastics 

  • Plastics take a long time to fully break down in nature. 
  • The microbes that breakdown plastics are too few and the quantity of plastics we produce is too many. 
  • A lot of plastics does not get recycled and ends up polluting the environment. 
  • Some plastics contain harmful chemical additives that are not good for human health. 
  • Burning of plastics releases toxic gases that are harmful to health and environment. 
  • One time use and throwaway plastics end up littering and polluting the environment.
