Our Plastic Problem: A Call for Global Solutions (Orca Footprints #33)

By Megan Durnford

Environment, Science and technology, Nature

Synthetic audio, Automated braille

Summary

We have a serious plastic problem. What was supposed to be a miracle material when it was first invented is now one of the biggest sources of pollution on our planet. But where does plastic come from? Why do we… use so much of it? How does it hurt the environment and the animals who live there? Our Plastic Problem looks at plastic's history, uses, and how it affects land, water, air and human health. It also explores innovations in bioplastic and recycling, and practical ways to reduce and replace the plastic in our lives. Working together, we can solve our plastic problem. The epub edition of this title is fully accessible.
