CELY 210 The Environment" by Janet Banting Plastics have become so much a part of our lives that, in one form or another, they are everywhere we look. I think ple will find it interesting to learn about some of the problems associated with them. Worldwide, 158 million tonnes of plastic are produced an- nually. According to the World Society for the Protection of Animals, more than 100 million pounds of plastic are dumped into the oceans ever year, and these are responsible for 80 per cent of the total wastes found there, This plastic garbage chokes, strangles, or poisons an estimated 100,000 marine mammals (in- cluding endangered whales and turtles) and hundreds of thousands of seabirds a year, while on land, deer and other animals die after swallowing plastic bags. The November/December 1989 issue of Garbage magazine has a pic- ture of a Statue Of Liberty dress constructed from 3000 plastic tampon applicators recovered from the Massachusetts shoreline. Not a pretty picture! Plastics may account for only about 5 per cent of the gar- bage in "the average household," but the statistics just quoted show that they pose significant problems for wildlife in par- ticular, and the environment in general. Besides being manufac- tured from oil, which is a non-renewable resource, plastics do not rot, rust, dissolve, biodegrade, or evaporate when exposed to the elements. While many claims have been made recently about the biodegradability of certain brands of plastic bags, with current technology some plastics may break down, but they do NOT in fact disappear. Very little decomposition at all is taking place inside our landfill sites, since in order for it to occur, ox- ygen is required. Programs are underway in a number of communities to recycle plastics, and this is good news in that recycling uses on- ly 5-10 per cent as much energy as manufacturing new ones. Recycling plastics is complicated and expensive, however, given the fact that the many different kinds are not compatible for . recycling purposes. CL What can YOU do to cut down on the problems associated . with plastics? Here are some suggestions. When you go shopp- ing, take along either some of the plastic bags you have around the house to reuse, or boxes, plastic hampers, or a sturdy cloth bag. Keep a bag of some kind in your purse and/or car for unex- pected purchases. Where possible, buy products in glass con- tainers that can be recycled rather than in plastic containers that will wind up in the garage, and avoid putting your produce in a lot of unnecessary plastic (buy "loose" and/or use bags from home). When you buy in bulk, take along containers from home to refill. Avoid feminine products with plastic applicators. If you must buy drinks connected with plastic six-pack rings, at least cut them apart before throwing them out. These rings, carelessly disposed of, have been known to kill birds and other animals, who become entangled in them and either starve or strangle. Recycle the plastic pop bottles that you buy. : At home you can wash and reuse plastic bags - I have even taken up washing the ones with holes, to use in place of plastic wrap. Lunches can go to work or school in reusable containers. Stop buying plastic garbage bags and start using a can in- stead. Cans last for years and also keep out animals effective- ly. If you must put your garbage into a bag (apartment dwellers may not have a choice), use ones that you have around from something you've bought. In our kitchen, since we stopped us- ing plastic bags, we use old chip bags, paper bags that cat food came in, the waxy bag from inside cereal boxes, and so on and So on. Last, but not least, write letters to politicians, business owners, and manufacturers to voice your concerns about plastics (or about any other environmental issue). Letters need not be lengthy-short and to the point is probably most effective. Mar- jorie Lamb's '2 Minutes a Day for a.Greener Planet' has sam- ple letters you can use as a guide. This book is available at the Scugog Memorial Library, along with other sources consulted for this column. Remember - manufacturers and store owners produce and ~ sell all kinds of things that are bad for the earth, because they are not in business to do good but to MAKE MONEY. It's up to us to vote with our pocketbooks. We do have lots of power - we 'just have to start exercising it! Let's not forget that it's our wildlife - and our planet - that we are trying to preserve. If we aren't willing to do it, who do we expect is going to? Scugog men slo pitch Standings as of September 10 Team GP W L T Pts. Triplex 18 16 2 0 32 Seagrave Blds.
