Answer 2

Answer:

Plastic waste describes plastic objects which have not been recycled properly. Between one and eight million tons of plastic waste enters the Earth's oceans every year,[1] and the World Economic Forum predicts this will double by 2030 if no action is taken.[2] Thin plastic objects such as plastic bags can be accidentally blown away by the wind.[3] This can cause drainage problems on land and pollution at sea.[3] Some countries banned plastic drinking straws in response to a video showing a turtle with a straw stuck up its nose.[4][5] Paper straws are a proposed alternative as they break down after a long time in seawater.[6]
