Disadvantages -
- Use up a nonrenewable/finite resource
- take a long time to decompose
- take up space in landfill
- cause pollution in oceans
- produce poisonous gases on combustion
Advantages -
- can form any shape
- they don't corrode
- cheaper than alternative materials
- less dense so lighter
- good insulator of heat ( home insulation )
- good insulator of electricity ( wire covers )
- wind power is impossible without plastics ( Special plastics are used in the wind turbine covers and huge blades to tap into this environmentally friendly energy source! )
- The amount of fuel a delivery truck needs could be considerably reduced if the cargo uses plastic containers? Obvious: lightweight means less fuel consumption!
Hope this helps :-)
