The Danger of Plastic Waste for Health and the Environment

do you know yet? One of the factors causing environmental damage today and still being a big homework for the Indonesian nation is the disposal factor of plastic
waste. Plastic itself is a hazardous waste that is difficult to manage. You often see that now almost everyone has something made of plastic, whether it's in the form of
plates, bottles, spoons, and what is most often used is plastic bags. Even though plastic bags take tens of years or even hundreds of years to make used plastic bag
waste completely disappear.
But the problem is the negative impact of plastic waste which is very large, you know. So, Education Personnel know that plastic waste is difficult to destroy or
destroy. If burned, waste plastic will produce toxic fumes which are harmful to health, namely if the combustion process is incomplete, plastic will decompose in the
air as dioxins, these compounds are very dangerous if inhaled by humans. The impact will trigger cancer, hepatitis, inflammation of the liver, nervous system
disorders and trigger depression.
You also need to know nowadays, yes, besides disturbing the health of plastic bags, they can also cause flooding, because they clog waterways. So that it can cause
floods, even those that are directed can damage the turbine reservoir, wow, that's really dangerous, Education Personnel. For that, let's protect the health and
environment of the large amount of plastic bag waste used by humans.
The following is a solution to solving environmental problems based on some of the considerations above. It can be estimated that the most appropriate technology to
solve the above problems is the technology of destroying waste into solid waste, which is maximum volume reduction. So, the right technology to destroy waste is by
means of deactivated combustion.
Processing waste as a product that is no longer useful and tends to be thrown away must be changed. That is, by means of cleaner production of this product is one of
the plans for industrial redesign which aims to find ways to recycle harmful by-products, reduce overall pollution and create hazardous by-products,
From developments in people's lives, it can be concluded that waste management cannot be solely handled by regional, district or city governments. At the level of
people's lives today requires an expansion of the approach to the source approach and a paradigm shift which in other cases requires intervention from the
government.
