Abstract
Plastic is now being mentioned as the worst invention in history because of the harm it is causing to the planet (human and ocean living organisms). Plastic has its ecosystem and first, it pollinated our land and ocean. Then it comes back with microplastics, is toxic and it pay cost for human cancer. Plastic is the cause of estrogenic activity (EA). EA happens when a chemical like BPA (bisphenol A) or phthalates enters the body and mimics the hormone estrogens. As per the Centres for Disease Control, approximately, 92.6% of children over 6 years old have detectable levels of BPA in their bodies. Heavily polluted oceans can cause fish products may contain higher components of microplastics, which is harmful to peoples’ health. Almost 60% of the protein source in the world is fish. Microplastics are eaten by fish and become a piece of the natural way of life. Fishes have store the fatty tissue, which have all the micro toxic plastic fragments. Therefore, those toxins are mainly linked with cancer, cognitive problems. Plastic is highly toxic in Air and fossil fuels convert into plastic resins and carcinogenic are released into nature.
Plastic pollution affects many aspects of human well-being: Affecting the aesthetics of beaches, blocking drainage and wastewater engineering systems, and providing a breeding ground for disease vectors. But the Human ecosystem made the way that every food or drinks, People use plastic plate or bottle. Which is highly dangerous for the people of the world in long run?
