Answer:

Plastics of various kinds have long found applications in virtually every corner of everyday life -- toys, storage containers, electronics and much more. In February 2013, an editorial in the international journal "Nature" called upon scientists residing in the world's largest producers of plastic to classify it as a hazardous material, similar to the labeling of chlorofluorocarbons 14 years earlier.
