Answer:

As the world population continues to grow, so does the amount of waste produced by humans. Lifestyle modes require easily disposed products, such as salt cans or bottles of water, but the accumulation of these products has led to an increase in plastic pollution worldwide. Since plastic is linked to high toxic pollutants, it has the potential to cause serious damage to the environment in the form of air, water, and pollution.

Simply put; Plastic contamination is when plastic accumulates locally and has begun to adversely affect the natural environment and causes problems for plants, wildlife, and human populations. This usually involves killing plant life and endangering local animals. Plastic is an amazingly useful material, but it is also made from toxic computers known to cause illness, and because it is intended for durability, it cannot be replaced.

Next time you shop, don't forget to pack a paper or cloth bag. Also, try to avoid bringing home plastic bags and buying items in bulk packs. In this way you can help contribute to the environment in a way to reduce plastic pollution which has its negative effects. Here in this article, let's look at the various causes, effects and solutions to the plastic pollution you wish you had known.

Marine Pollution

Water conservation is already a problem in areas from California to parts of India, but groundwater is at high risk because of leaking plastic and waste. If you've ever seen a garbage can, imagine what happens every time it rains - and think you're in your drinking water. Groundwater and existing pools may be contaminated by leaky toxins.

Soil Pollution

When plastic is disposed of in a landfill, it comes in contact with water and creates harmful chemicals. When these chemicals drop below the surface, they degrade the water quality. Air absorbs and deposits plastics from one place to another, increasing soil waste. Pillars, beams, sidewalks, trees, fences, towers, etc. Even animals that can get close to them can even cause them to die.

Air pollution

The burning of plastic in the air opens up to lead to pollution due to the release of toxic chemicals. Air pollution by humans and animals affects their health and can cause respiratory problems.
