One 'convenience oriented" material that seems to be showing up in our garbage more and more each year is plastic in all shapes, sizes, and colors and designedd to be thrown away Last year ahout lH million ton sof plastic was thrown away. Analysts estimate that each American throws away ahout 2(K) pounds of plastic each year. Most of it is in the form of some type ot disposal packaging What's shocking is that nealryiiiK) ot the state's 567 municipalities are involved in plastics recycling But recycling is only the second.host way to deal with the growing vollume of plastics being dumped into America's landfills, our waterways, forests and beaches. Banning the use and sale ot disposal plastics is the first Thirty years ago before the popularity of disposal plastic containers became an epidemic, manufacturers generally used other common materials, namely glass, aluminum and wood, as packaggmgfor their products. Today, common household products such as ki'tehup. motor oil, and charcoal lighters are packaged in throw away plastic containers where glass, paper and aluminum, respectively, were once used Why the change" Not only for cost, hut for convenience And what a price we are paying tor that convenience Ecologically speaking the price is enormous Korevery square mile in (lie ocean (here are 46.INK) pieces of plastic K.ich y ear !< billion pounds of disposable diapers, once made of cloth and reused many fnne> end up in landhlls or incinerators Kor those diapers being buried in the ground.
