I strongly believe that the use of plastic in daily life brings a lot of negative effects to people. This is
because plastic contains a lot of harmful substances that affect the environment and human health.
These polymers are often buried with municipal solid waste at the end of their useful life. Phthalates,
polyfluorinated compounds, bisphenol A (BPA), brominated flame retardants, antimony trioxide and
other toxic components of plastics can leach out and cause negative impacts on the environment and
public health in particularProshad R, Islam MS, Kormoker T, Haque MA, Mahfuzur Rahman MD, et al,
2018). Chemicals in plastic such as BPA can cause cancer in humans. BPA exposure and hormone-related
malignancies, such as breast, prostate, ovarian, and endometrial carcinoma, have been linked in in vitro
and in vivo investigations (Rolf U. Halden, 2018). For example, in order to save costs as well as easy to
carry, most people use plastic bags to store food and utensils.
