Plastic
• Plastic products contain
chemical extracts.
• Adaptability, plus a wide
range of other
properties, such as
being lightweight,
durable, flexible, and
inexpensive to produce,
has led to its
widespread use.
Manufacture of Plastic
• 9.2 billion tons of plastic are estimated to have
been made between 1950 and 2017.
• More than half of this plastic has been produced
since 2004.
• In 2020, 400 million tons of plastic were
produced.
• If global plastic demand continues, it is estimated
that by 2050 annual global plastic production will
reach 1,100 million tons.
Household items made of various types of plastic
Plastic a threat in
Pakistan
• Pakistan has one of the highest
percentages of mismanaged
plastic in South Asia.
• More than 3.3 million tons of
plastic is wasted each year in
Pakistan and most of it ends up
in landfills, unmanaged dumps,
or strewn about land and water
bodies across the country
damaging the environment and
people's health.
Consequences
