What effect plastic glass tin and cans etc have on the environment if they are not recycled?
If plastic, glass, tin, and cans are not recycled, they contribute significantly to environmental pollution. These materials can take hundreds to thousands of years to decompose, leading to the accumulation of waste in landfills and natural habitats. This can harm wildlife, disrupt ecosystems, and pollute soil and waterways. Additionally, the production of new materials from virgin resources increases greenhouse gas emissions and depletes Natural Resources.
