When plastic waste is not properly disposed of, it can end up on beaches, making them unsightly and potentially dangerous. Plastic waste can also harm marine life and other animals that live on or near the beach. When plastic waste is burned, it can release toxic fumes and particles into the air, which can harm human health and contribute to air pollution.
THE PROBLEM
THERE IS A MASSIVE AMOUNTOF PLASTIC WASTE IN THE WORLD
Plastic waste that ends up on land can pollute the soil and harm plants and animals that depend on it. The chemicals in plastic can leach into the soil and harm the organisms that live in it. Plastic waste can take up space and alter natural habitats, displacing animals and plants that live there. This can have a cascading effect on ecosystems and biodiversity.
IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE FOR PLASTIC TO DECOMPOSE
Plastic waste can harm human health by contaminating soil and water sources, and by releasing toxic chemicals into the air when burned. Economic impact: Plastic waste can have a negative economic impact on areas that rely on tourism or fishing. Beaches and land polluted with plastic waste can deter tourists, and plastic waste can harm or kill marine life that is important for fishing industries.
ENVIRONMENTAL INNOVATORS
Reducing plastic waste is essential to protecting beaches and land. That's what we at WTR do. By using recycled plastic bottles to create products, WTR helps reduce waste and promotes sustainability. Additionally, by sourcing products made from recycled materials, WTR provides eco-conscious customers with a range of stylish and functional options that align with their values.
Using recycled polyester instead of traditional polyester made from non-renewable resources helps us to reduce waste and environmental impact. It also helps us to promote a circular economy by creating a new use for plastic bottles that might otherwise end up in landfills or oceans.
