Excessive plastic waste refers to the large amounts of plastic materials that are discarded and not properly recycled. This waste often comes from single-use items like plastic bags, bottles, and packaging. When not disposed of correctly, these plastics can end up in landfills, oceans, and other natural environments, causing harm to wildlife and ecosystems. The growing production of plastic, driven by consumer demand and convenience, has led to a significant increase in plastic waste. Many countries are now implementing policies to reduce plastic use and promote recycling, aiming to mitigate the environmental impact of excessive plastic waste and protect our planet's resources.
