PLASTICS ARE FOREVER
Imagine you
are sitting on a beach and relaxing. Hearing different sounds alike music
.There are boats banging around, wind howling through the windbreaks, children
shouting and laughing. Predominantly the
sound of the sea in the background. Exuberant and drunk. NEVERTHELESS, enjoying
the large view of trash of plastic bottles, caps, bags floating in the sea.
Waiving and touching NEW high with each CREST.
It Is fantasy
for some beaches and truth for other beaches. Rest assured it will be
actualized for every coastal region in your life and generation will be going
to face it.
Feel another
carving for hydration. When you drink water from plastic bottle, just feel the
touch of water on your tongue. And as water flows into your throat, Feel the
serene toxins are penetrating in our body cell. Relax and close your eyes.
I CANT LIVE WITHOUT YOU
POLYT;HENNY: This
plastics has become a part of our life style and we cant get rid of it. Still
Plastics are direct killers, our habits cant change its nature.
Almost all garbage
are recycled unless made by human. And creatures are meant to digest garbage,
eat plastics and die with indigestion. Goose, fishes, cows many more are in
line, especially food chain connected with ocean is being disturbed.
LIFE OF Pl’ASTICS:
Plastics
journey to its death is awesome. It can die or partially die by three ways:
dumped in land, burnt( it happens only in india ) or reached ocean. A plastic
which reaches to ocean spreads into water
Remember,
plastics you are throwing by means of toy, bags or stuff that will be in your
reach again. If that part is not in reach of you, it will be cometh to your
generations by water or by air toxicity. Plastics are breakable to tiny pieces
and then more tiny day by day. But still that may be reason of death of smaller
species.
And if
humans got interested in making plastics at micro level, non breakable too??
One
Gentleman who lives in very far country named Mr. Barak (: ) )
Signed one
act for making “beauty product without microbeads”.
Reason is
Microbeads are too small to remove once they are in an aquatic environment,
Once they’re in waterways, microbeads can be ingested by the organic lives. If
plastic is part of coastal areas, then you may need to demand ORGANIC FISH in
restaurants which was grown in pisciculture.
PERMANENT CUTOFF WITH
PLASTICS: Can you
imagine life without plastic!!Answer is NO, at least not for next 500
years. Less than 500 years it can happen
only if world ends before that time
span.
Consider
plastics in automotives, a lighter replacement for steel and other metal
components. Or a plastic bottle compared to a much heavier glass one. Their
light weight enables greater transportation efficiency and a lower overall
carbon footprint. In fact, if we listen to the chemical industry, the use of
plastics more than offsets the greenhouse gas emissions of their production by
a factor of 2 to 2.5.
The reasons
for paper’s higher carbon footprint are complex, but can mostly be understood
as stemming from the fact that paper bags are much thicker than plastic bags.
RAY IN THE DARK: PFAND:
“PFAND” word
I came across first time in Germany.
fand
is a certain portion of the price on a bottled drink( that is mentioned along
with price ) that you get back if you return bottle. And it applies to plastic and glass
bottles. Later on Glass bottles are washed and re used and plastic bottles are crushed and recycled.
Think logically, companies who are packing their drinks in plastic bottles. They
are adding plastic bottle price , but not
price of recycling it. At least this much responsibility they should
take. And retailer should be involved with them in this process.
KEEP SOME FUN FOR FUTURE: Reckoning
could be more broader than any write ups or research. But one individual can do
few things all the time and everywhere:
1.
Refuse
2.
If cant refuse then re-use
3.
BE VEGETARIAN:That s not my request. I am not asking you to be vegetarian. Its
Mr. David Tyler, who suggested this. He is professor of chemistry.“Eat one less meat dish a week —
that’s what will have a real impact on the environment,”
When point
no. 1 doesn't work out then go for point no. 2. But before that, give die hard
effort to point no. 1. Point no. 3 will make you more controlled and highly
motivated. (Try it, I have already started trying, earlier I used to have meat
once in a month : ) ) .
Point no. 4: caste your vote for the parties who
are more environmental concerned. In point of fact, you are not able to clean
plastics up, not your generation will be able to do so (I guarantee you). Hence
precaution is better than cure. Reading, or listening about garbage, trash is
horrible. But you did it if you have reached till this last line:God called the
dry land Earth, and the waters that were gathered together he called Seas. And
God saw that it was good.
It was good , but will that be good too in future.
