The environment day 2018 show up a slogan and hashtags about "beat plastic pollution", "If you can't reuse it, refuse it" But however there are many applications depending on plastic and I think that it is better to find new methods for plastic degradation or design for reuse.
I am interested to find out more about historical and current researches that discussing the topic of plastic degradation and any statistics about the use of plastic products.
I am thinking about how to balance between mankind needs from plastic and the large business based on plastic industry versus plastic pollution. How to control the pollution without affecting the need and the business as well.
Can you help to find solution between the three trade-offs; Plastic Pollution, Plastic Needs, and Plastic Business.
Here you have some market data from last 12 years, which might be helpful for the statistics of the use of plastic products in Europe
