Plastic is filling up the world. Studies have detected plastic fibers in the stomachs of sperm whales, in tap water — even in table salt. But as concern grows about plastic debris in the oceans and in our bodies, the production of new plastic is booming, with more than a dozen plastic-producing plants being built or planned around the world by petrochemical companies. One new plant is the Shell Pennsylvania Petrochemicals Complex, under construction outside of Pittsburgh. Once completed, the plant will convert natural gas into plastics, producing more than a million tons of plastic in the form of tiny pellets, which will be turned into items like phone cases, auto parts and food packaging. Many in the Pittsburgh area see it as an economic engine, but others worry about long-term harm. On Tuesday, President Trump toured the chemical plant, touching on energy policy and speaking to workers about the jobs the plant would create and the benefits that would be offered. He also claimed credit for the project, however the plans for the chemical complex were announced in 2012 while President Barack Obama was in office.

-'Ftalates', in soft plastics, softsubstancers...are very dangerous to all animals Male-gender, as it is so equal to male HORMONES..(testorone) it poisons the human inners in fertilation...for male in all wildlife and humans. Mind of that, when kids plays with toys...one can actually test it yourselves if putting 'hard plastics' with 'soft plastics', in a closed glass jar with tight lid on. For what will happen with the 'hard plastic object'..?

We fly to the moon and are so proud of our digital technologies. But we are unable to develop recyclable plastic. Because it's not cheap. But at someday in near future plastic will everywhere - even in luxurious ressorts somewhere on Maldives or it rains plastic - spending their bonuses just will not be fun anymore.

@cottrell_vicki no, of course not! Not all the rice turns out to be plastic. But some people noticed something was wrong with the rice they cooked and there was a research and we found out that even some famous brands are to blame! It went public! Now maybe the situation is under control, who knows!

@gatecrasher0606 my goodness I hope so for your sake. I am constantly accusing the American FDA for not doing a good job protecting us from food that we shouldn't be eating! But it sounds even worse for you! I wish I could mail you a good bag of really good rice!!!

Então..... vamos agora banir o plástico ou vamos educar as pessoas? Há 15 anos atrás numa palestra em um órgão ambiental eu falei o mesmo sobre o amianto..... e a história se repete....nossa ignorância que transforma o que pode ser bom em algo terrível....
