Useful and harmful effects of plastics?

Plastic is useful in that it is strong, flexible, and versatile. It can be harmful to the environment if not disposed of properly. It is also composed of many toxic chemicals like vinyl chloride and benzene which can be harmful to human health.


Is plastic cool?

Is plastic coldish? No, it's usually room temperature. Is plastic groovy? Yeah, it's a great invention and it's interesting to think of all the different ways it's used. Is it cool to get plastic bags when you shop? No. It never decomposes; it just clogs up our ecosystem and plastic bags are creating dead zones in the ocean. That means no more delicious fish. Plastic bags are also made of petroleum, which is not cool politically. If you reuse bags, you get the benefit of not killing so many fish, not "consuming" any more than you have to which is better for the environment, and not using more petroleum. Paper bags are better, as they'll decompose someday if they're not in a landfill.
