Plastic not-so-Fantastic

Hi guys! We are back with our second post!

Have you ever wondered what goes in your plastic bottle besides water?

You guys probably may not know that there are thousands of harmful chemicals and toxins stored in a plastic bottle that you find convenient. Each time you refill, each sip you take, the chemicals stored goes into your body. For now, you may not see how harmful it is, but in the near future, you DEFINITELY will..

TRUST ME!

So the next time you want to refill that plastic water bottle of yours again, think again.. is convenience and price worth more than your health? Why not invest in a good aluminum bottle that's more durable and....

LOOK HOW PRETTY THEY ARE!!!

Moving onnnnnn........

IT'S HARMFUL TO THE ENVIRONMENT!!!!!

1. Air Pollution

When burning and manufacturing plastics, the chemicals are emitted into the environment, thus, contributes to the breakdown of the Earth's ozone layer.

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

Higher UV ray entering Earth's atmosphere which leads to higher occurrence of cancer, the super hot weather and decreases in yield crops = no food!!

Mainly, it affects Man and every other living thing on Earth. *background voice: SO SERIOUS AH* Yeap.. that serious.

2. Reduced landfill space

Since plastic bottles are non-biodegradable, it is statistically proven that 2.5 Million bottles an hour, 60 million a day and 21,900,000,000 a year are disposed. With such a huge amount, how is it possible for mankind or even technology to breakdown all the bottles for enough land?

3. Fossil Fuel

EVERYTHING on earth runs on fossil fuel. But 17 million barrels of fossil fuels are used to manufacture bottles. This tremendous amount is enough to power 1 million cars for a year. SURPRISING?

The last part of the post would be dedicated to all the animals who have died due to plastic suffocation and ingestion....

Plastic bags kill around 100,000 animals a year.

Most marine creatures ingest plastics, mistaking them for food.

The plastic that these animals ingest after they died, would still stay in their body.

So... Are you guys willing to do your part to stop this ignorant act for the animals, yourself, your loved ones and most importantly,  

Mother Earth?

That's all for now.

Do stay tuned next week for further updates on how you can play a part!
