Plastic pollution is the earth's mound which we need to pay more attention

Plastic pollution is the earth's mound. According to the Financial Times, up to 8 million tons of plastic are dumped into the oceans each year. Most of the rubbish on the ocean floor is plastic. There is a long period of cyclone in the North Pacific Ocean that has the same area of plastic garbage as Xinjiang in China.

Plastic garbage led to a large number of birds, marine mammals died. It has even been proven that it is beginning to endanger humanity itself.

In 2015, the American science magazine Scientific American released a survey on Chinese salt. The report shows that polyphenols used in the production of plastic bottles have been found in the common salt of 15 brands purchased from all over China. Ethylene dicarboxylate, glycol esters, polyethylene, and cellophane and many other plastics.

Sea salt is most contaminated by plastic. Each pound (453g) contained in the plastic particles up to more than 1,200 tablets. Salt salt plastic particles although relatively low, but also up to 800.

Plastic particles are smaller diameter, can enter the tissue cells, accumulate in the liver, causing inflammation, resulting in chronic deposition poisoning. It is also possible to enter the bloodstream and when it reaches a certain concentration, affect our endocrine system.

In 2016, Yale University announced the 2016 Global Environmental Performance Index (EPI) rankings, ranking 118 in China. Top 30 countries (or regions), Switzerland first, followed by Australia, Singapore, Germany, Britain, Japan and so on.

Some of the plastic products are disposable, which can easily become the white pollution, so plastic recycling such as polystyrene recycling is very necessary to protect our environment. And then we can reuse it to do some other products. On top of that, foam containers recycling is also can be took to solve the plastic pollution.
