The big problem with plastics in the environment is not primarily their toxicity but their stability. Many plastics do not degrade readily and so they will be almost unchanged for hundreds of years. This is a problem because animals might eat them and as the plastics cannot be digested they block the stomach or intestines and kill the animal that ate the piece of plastic.
You should NOT manufacture plastic bags because when you make them you release toxic gases into the atmosphere! And if people buy you have to make more and more.Note: Use re-usable bags! Plastic bags are bad for the environment!
Because it is not biodegradable.it is toxic when burnt and takes hundreds and billions of years to decompose.
Yes, Bromine is toxic
Yes, toxic waste is classed as toxic (dangerous to the environment).
Burning of plastic is simply dangerous to the human health and the health of the environment. When plastic burns, it releases carbon monoxide and toxic organic chemicals called dioxins that contain chlorine. These toxic gases will eventually lead to cancer, impotence, asthma, and other allergies to humans.
By burning plastic, the gases are toxic and poisonous.
Not if its non toxic plastic
Smoke or gas let off by a melted plastic spoon is toxic and should be avoided. The cooled plastic can be disposed of in the trash in a normal way.
Everyday non biodegradable plastic bags are very harmful to the environment on many levels. They do not break down naturally and when burned, they give off highly toxic gases. It is far better to use bio-degradable bags for the good of the future of our planet
it can give out a very toxic gas called methane
Probably.
Toxic, yes and bad for the environment. Flammable, no.
