1. Plastic Garbage Project

2. What Happen to a plastic product
 Today
throughout the
world 8000 kg of
plastics are
produced every
second. But what
happens to a
plastic product
at the end of its
life cycle?

3.  The sea has gradually begun to
change into a gigantic soup of
plastic – every year more than
6.4 metric tons of garbage
reaches the oceans and 80
percent of this garbage comes
from the land. The major part of
the waste sinks to the floor of
the sea, 15 percent moves
around the surface, and a
further 15 percent is stranded at
some time or another on the
coastline.

4. Plastic is not degradable
 Plastic pieces are broken up
into constantly smaller
pieces and enter the food
chain.

5. Plastic Archaeological Objects
 Even in hundreds of years
from now it will still be
possible to find plastic
objects from our time on
beaches or in the sea. As
witnesses of our civilization
they will, in the long term,
become archaeological
objects.

6. Plastic Objects from all over the World
 The currents in the northern Pacific
flow in such a way that sooner or
later every floating object that enters
the sea from the coasts of Japan,
China, Russia, Korea, the USA and
Canada could end up in one of the
great pacific garbage patches or be
washed ashore in Hawaii. Indeed,
plastic objects from all over the
world are travelling far distances and
can also be found on our beaches.

15. The Chemical of Plastic
 Although every plastic has
specific qualities, these can be
modified in the production
process as required and
adapted to suit different needs
by blending with other
polymers or by the use of
additives. There are concerns
about the impact on health and
the environment of a number of
the substances used.
Worldwide, about one million
tons of phthalates are used
every year, the five most
common are DIDP, DINP,
DEHP, DBP und BBP.
Today certain phthalates
(plasticizers), Bisphenol A and
various flame retardants are
regarded as particularly
problematic.

18. Alternative:
When they plan to go shopping
many consumers take shopping bags
or baskets with them. Spontaneous
shopping is more problematic, here
folding shopping bags or nets are
useful.
