SURVEY QUESTIONS
1. Are you typically a vendor? Or a consumer?
2. How often do you use plastics?
3. How reliable do you think plastic is?
4. [Public’s perspective on plastics]
a. Do you think plastics have preserved your bought goods?
b. Do you think that the use of single-use plastics is still present?
c. If there is a cheap alternative to single-use plastics would you use it instead?
5. Is Bioplastic made from banana peels effective?
6. How durable do you think the bioplastic can hold wet products?
7. If bioplastic created from banana peels is effective would you use it instead?
8. [Product Review] Give your thoughts about the product?
a. Visual/Looks
b. Texture
c. Strength
d. Smell

3. Survey 20-30 people or interview at least five (5) people. Both can be done online.
Sample Size: 50 RESPONDENTS
Where: PUBLIC STREET MARKET

4. Formulate a hypothesis based on the consolidated result, whether it proves if the social
problem is relevant.

CONCLUSION
The survey results suggest that the social problem of single-use plastics is relevant and
that the public's awareness of environmental harm caused by plastics does not necessarily
translate into a complete shift away from their use. Convenience, habits, and the lack of suitable
alternatives are key factors influencing consumer behavior. However, the results also indicate
that there is potential for a shift towards more biodegradable plastics, provided that affordable
and high-quality alternatives are available. Educational campaigns, policy changes, and
innovative product development may contribute to reducing reliance on single-use plastics and
promoting more sustainable choices.
