Look around you—how many plastic(塑料的) things can you find in your house? Most homes today are almost full of plastics, from water bottles to clothes, chairs and even computers. Regretfully, so are our rivers and oceans.
According to the report, about 583 billion plastic bottles were produced in 2021. That is 100 billion more than just five years ago. This year, five trillion(万亿) plastic bags were used. That was 160,000 every second. Americans alone use half a million drinking straws(吸管) every day.
However, very little of the plastic that goes into recycling bins(垃圾箱) can make it through the recycling process(过程). Experts think that only around 9% of plastic is recycled. About 16% is burned for electricity or heat. The rest ends up in landfills or bodies of water.
So how do you make sure plastic things you use are recycled? Begin by making sure the things you put in your recycling bin can be recycled. And in most cases, plastic things can't be used again if they have more than one kind of plastic in them. That's because some plastics can't be mixed together.
How about those plastic things that are able to be recycled at a recycling centre? First, workers make sure that each plastic is clean. After that, the plastic things are made into small pieces. At last, they are melted(融化) and used to create new things. One of the commonly seen products is new plastic bottles. Recycled plastic can also be used to make clothes, pens and building materials!
