  1. How Engineers can Help Reduce Unnecessary Plastic Pollution? Plastic is one of the highly used manmade material which is used by each and every person in their daily life. Some of its qualities make it more useable by us such as lightweight, flexible, inexpensive, and durable. Due to these qualities, we get addicted of it. Now, these days we used plastic in each second thing we use in our daily life such as from morning toothbrushes to highly used mobiles. But the questions arise either it is good for our nature or not. 

  2. Petroleum-based plastic doesn’t biodegrade with the rest of the organic material mixed in with garbage. Bacteria breaks down the organic waste into other useful compounds For this reason, it may be safe to say plastic will never biodegrade. How long does it take for plastics to biodegrade?

  3. A material solution:- One material solution is to use plant-based hydro-biodegradable plastic, including polylactic acid (PLA), which decomposes into water and carbon dioxide in 47 to 90 days while in a composting facility at high temperatures. • Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle:- Plastic is a complicated problem that requires global cooperation.  A solution to this enormous problem is not as simple as banning plastic. However, many uses of plastic, typically utensils and packaging, are unnecessary. In fact, nearly half of all plastic waste is in the form of packaging.   Solutions….

  4. Engineers can play a lead role in finding a solution for plastic reuse by inventing new ideas. Chemical Engineers introduce new ideas for recycling plastic bags. They are trying to invent new products from used plastic. Most of the areas banned plastic in their locality because it is very hard to recollect used plastic from tones of garbage. Try to use paper in place of plastic bags. Plastic is not only used as carrying bags but may also be used in so many other products. It is very hard to ignore it. But if we try we can do anything. How Engineers can help?
