According to a report of the United Nations Environment Program, from 1950 to now, global plastic production has increased from 1.5 million tons to 380 million tons per year. At the same time, each year the world uses 500 billion plastic bags and up to 40% of finished plastic goes unused. In Vietnam alone, there are about 1.8 million tons of plastic, along with more than 730,000 tons of plastic waste dumped into the sea every year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plastic waste is generated from many sources and is very diverse such as: plastic bags, plastic bottles, plastic straws, food containers from households, F&amp;B chains; shipping packaging, packaging bags, toy plastic boxes from factories, industrial parks; needles, gloves, syringes from hospitals, medical centers&#8230; Of which only about 9% of plastic can be recycled, 12% is burned, the rest 79% of plastic waste is treated by the landfill method or directly discharged into the environment and they take hundreds of years to decompose.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8647\" src=\"https:\/\/newstarpaper.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/giam-thieu-chat-thai-nhua-2-1.png\" alt=\"gi\u1ea3m thi\u1ec3u ch\u1ea5t th\u1ea3i nh\u1ef1a\" width=\"600\" height=\"324\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a result, over time, the plastic waste that is buried or discharged into the environment will be decomposed into microplastic pieces with countless sizes from small to too small that we cannot see with the naked eye. Not only that, these microplastics will be mixed with the soil, water, air and marine creatures may accidentally consume. As we may consume these marine creatures, microplastic particles then enter the human body, causing serious harm to our health. Besides, the waste that is treated by incineration produces harmful emissions such as dioxins, furans, etc., which reduces immunity, affects endocrine glands, and causes cancer\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we face the unpredictable harmful effects of plastic waste, each of us needs to raise our awareness of reducing plastic waste to protect the environment, as well as the wellbeing of ourselves and our families.
