And then sometimes‚ slowly‚ to herself‚

SAY NO TO PLASTICS!! As quoted by Lord Byron‚ “There is a pleasure in the pathless woods‚ There is a rapture on the lonely shore‚ There is society‚ where none intrudes‚ By the deep sea‚ and music in its roar: I love not man the less‚ but Nature more.” The earth is the only known world to harbour life.

Plastics are durable‚ lightweight materials that were invented in 1909. They are normally made from oil and natural gas. Using plastics to replace packaging materials such as metal and glass has allowed manufacturers to make packages that are more efficient. For example to bottle eight gallons of a beverage would take only two pounds of plastic but would take three pounds of aluminum‚ eight pounds of steel and 27 pounds of glass. The light weight of plastic packaging helps reduce transportation

The Plastic Age is going strong. Plastic rules our lives and how! It’s durable‚ does not perish‚ and you don’t need to cut trees to make it.
