How much plastic do we really use and where does it end up?

This question made me think more deeply about the hidden impact of plastic waste in our everyday lives, focusing on how it affects our health and the environment.

I am trying to raise awareness in a way that feels personal, showing how everyday plastic impacts what we eat and the planet we live on.

Plastics in your food

This educational poster exposes the hidden truth about my plastic in our daily lives-revealing that we unknowingly consumed the equivalent of 52 credit cards in my microplastics each year. It urges the viewer to take action through recycling and environmental awareness to protect our health and the planet.
