The danger of disposable plastic containers to the environment
Modern life, in addition to the well-being that brings to people, also can inflict irreparable damage to them. Plastic containers can be mentioned as obvious examples of this issue. When these bags and containers replaced cloth and paper containers, perhaps few people thought that shortly these alternatives would become one of the main environmental problems. According to research, more than 3 million tons of plastic are produced annually in Iran alone. Most of these plastics are also durable and take hundreds of years to decompose on their own. Nowadays Export of biodegradable containers is one of the profitable businesses around the world.
These plastic containers are mainly made of polystyrene, which is dependent on petroleum and fossil materials, and are released when exposed to temperatures above 65 degrees and in the presence of fats and acids, which have been proven to be carcinogenic to humans. But due to the strong dependence of people and large industrial factories on this type of product, it is not possible not to use these products. Instead of exporting these products, Export of biodegradable containers is being popular around the world.
