The Plastic Problem

In 18 bite-sized chapters, Rachel Salt walks readers through the invention and globalized creation of plastic, its impacts and uses in our day-today lives, and its importance to the larger global economy. She then examines the how and why of what makes plastic so harmful to our planet and, just in case there was any doubt, Salt reinforces this danger by providing chapters on the planet-choking results of our plastic habit including the fact that there is almost certainly, plastic floating inside each and every person in the world.
