Abstract "From food wrappers and grocery bags-to toothpaste tubes and shampoo bottles-cups and straws to electronics-athletic pants to Barbie dolls---and lifesaving devices like IV tubes to prosthetic limbs, modern life runs on plastic. In a timeframe shorter than the average human lifespan, the world became entirely dependent on plastic. The same qualities that make plastic indispensable to modern life, also make it an enormous threat to the planet"-- Provided by publisher.
