Plastic poses serious threats from its production through disposal. The chemicals used to make plastic are toxic and have caused cancer, while plastic itself is flammable and has contributed to accidents. Once plastic is produced, the harm cannot be undone through any disposal method like recycling, burning, or landfilling as recycling plastic exposes workers to toxic fumes that can cause respiratory and skin problems. Plastic bags litter the landscape and the harms of plastic cannot be reversed.
