OF PLASTIC POLLUTION
What is Plastic Pollution?
As plastic is composed of
major toxic pollutants, it has
the potential to cause
great harm to the
environment in the form of
air, water and land pollution
Put simply, plastic pollution
is when plastic has gathered
in an area and has begun
to negatively impact the
natural environment and
create problems for plants,
wildlife and even human
population. Often this
includes killing plant life and
posing dangers to local
animals.
