Скачать или смотреть Plastic Pollution and Microplastics The Hidden Risk We Ignore

Plastic pollution goes beyond what we see. Microplastics are now present in our water, food, and ecosystems, creating long-term risks for human health and the environment.

In this podcast, Milton Mohanty discusses why plastic waste needs better management and how neglecting it affects not just nature but also the circular economy. When plastic is not disposed of properly, it enters informal and inefficient channels, leading to contaminated scrap, lower recovery value, and lost opportunities for genuine recyclers and sellers.

The conversation also touches on how the lack of segregation at source increases scrap, reduces recycling efficiency and weakens the overall economics of plastic recovery.

Without behavioural change at the household and community level, even recyclable plastic struggles to complete the loop.

Watch to understand why responsible plastic management is no longer optional and why the next step depends on the choices we make every day.
