What would happen if there was no plastic?
Plastic is a substance that is involved in every aspect of our lives. Plastic material is used in many products including food containers, water bottles, detergents, machine parts. So what would happen if there was no plastic? Would life be easier with zero plastic? Would our world be cleaner? How many sea creatures could we save and benefit our world? Would there be more species on a planet without plastic?
The answer to all these questions is actually not that life would be easier with zero plastic. Yes, about 100 million sea creatures are disappearing in the world due to pollution, but not all of this is due to plastic pollution. Because oil and chemical-based leaks combined with other factors pose a much greater danger to the world than plastic.
From this we can understand that there would be no less death in a world without plastic.
As Yelkenciler Machine, we support the production of recyclable plastics and in this context, we produce pet blow moulding machines. Plastic blow moulding machines are a series of production machines used for the production of pet bottles and derivatives that make our lives easier. Accordingly, the only thing you need to do to buy a plastic blow moulding machine is to contact us as a pet blow moulding machine manufacturer in Turkey.
What Would the World Be Like Without Plastic?
The misuse of plastic harms many living things in the sea and on land, but did you know that when sustainable plastic is developed, it is possible to protect our natural resources and sustain wildlife?
How would our lives change without plastic? At the simplest, you would have to say goodbye to your sportswear, underwear and make-up. Apart from that, if there was no plastic, we would also say goodbye to the following products;
- Cars
- Buses
- Aircrafts
- Trains
- Mobile Phones,
- Laptops
- Game Stations,
- Credit Cards,
- Cash
- Water Pipes
- Electricity Lines
Power lines would be very dangerous for humans and animals. Without water pipes, it would be very difficult to distribute water, especially in undeveloped and developing countries. Cars would be more durable if they were made of iron instead of plastic, but their prices would be very high. So transport would be difficult. Paper or cardboard could be used instead of plastic, but this would lead to more trees being cut down.
All these actually reveal the compulsory use of plastic for us. It is very easy to integrate plastic into our lives by using it consciously.
What are the Benefits of Plastic that Make Our Daily Life Easier?
Plastiğin zararlı gözüken yanlarının yanı sıra faydaları da vardır. Bunlardan en belirgini gıdaları özellikle meyve ve sebzeleri uzun süre taze tutmasıdır. Temel gıdaların muhafazası plastik kaplarda pratik bir şekilde yapılmaktadır. Bunun dışında organik atıklar bir çöp yığını oluşturarak çevresel bir sorun yaratırdı.
Giydiğimiz kıyafetler doğal lif ve hayvan kürkü harici başka malzemeden yapılmazdı. Bu kapsamda iç çamaşırı, kot pantolon, kazak ya da ceket gibi kıyafetler üretilemezdi.
Plastiklerin en çok kullanıldığı sektörler ise teknoloji, mobilya ve tıbbi malzemelerdir. Bu kapsamda okuma gözlükleri ve güneş gözlükleri, protezler, vitaminler ve gibi sağlıklı ve hayatta kalmamıza yardımcı olan diğer önemli ürünler için de plastikleri kullanıyoruz.
Plastik olmasaydı, elektrik de kullanamazdık. Telefonunuzu veya bilgisayarınızı üretmek için gerekli olan plastik devreler olmazdı. Ucuz adaptörler de olmazdı. Yani üretim kısıtlı ve her şey daha pahalı olurdu.
