He aha nā pōʻino o ka plastik? No ke aha e hoʻohana ʻole ai i nā mea plastik?

mea ilikai Ua lilo ia i mea pono ole o ko kakou ola. Mai ka mālama ʻana i nā meaʻai a hiki i nā mea hoʻomaʻemaʻe; Mai nā ʻeke plastik a i nā ʻōmole wai, ola mākou i ka hilinaʻi piha i ka plastic.

Palaki; Ua kōkua nui ia i ka holomua ʻenehana o nā mea uila e like me nā kamepiula a me nā kelepona paʻalima. Akā i ka meaʻai hoʻohana i ka plastic ʻaʻole ia he manaʻo maikaʻi. 

Nīnau ʻoe no ke aha? Ma hope o ka heluhelu ʻana i ka ʻatikala, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻana o ka plastic i ko mākou ola ma mua o ko mākou manaʻo. 

He aha ka plastic?

ʻO nā plastik ka mea kumu o ko mākou ao hou. ʻO nā mea e like me Bisphenol A (BPA), thalates, antiminitroxide, brominated flame retardants, polyfluorinated chemicals i loko o kāna ʻike he pilikia nui i ke kaiapuni a me ke olakino kanaka. ʻO ia ke kumu o ka pollution koʻikoʻi o ke kaiapuni e like me ka pollution lepo, pollution wai, pollution ea. 

Pehea i hana ʻia ai ka plastic?

Hana ʻia ka plastik mai nā huahana kūlohelohe e like me ka lanahu, ke kinoea maoli, cellulose, ka paʻakai a me ka ʻaila ʻaila e hana ʻia i kahi kaʻina i kapa ʻia he polymerization i mua o nā catalysts. ʻO nā pūhui hopena, i kapa ʻia he polymers, ua hana hou ʻia me nā mea hoʻohui e hana i nā plastics. 

ʻO nā ʻano plastik i hoʻohana ʻia i nā meaʻai a me nā mea inu

Eia nā ʻano ʻilika i hoʻohana ʻia no ka mālama ʻana i ka meaʻai: 

• Polyethylene terephthalate; Hoʻohana ʻia ia no ka hana ʻana i nā ʻōmole plastik, nā ʻōmole ʻaʻahu salakeke a me nā ipu ʻilika.
• ʻO ka polyethylene kiʻekiʻe i hoʻohana ʻia i loko o nā ʻeke waiū, polyethylene haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa i hoʻohana ʻia i loko o nā ʻeke ʻeke a me ka ʻeke plastik.
• Hoʻohana ʻia ka Polypropylene i nā kīʻaha yogurt, nā pāpale ʻōmole a me nā mauʻu.
• Hoʻohana ʻia ka Polystyrene i loko o nā ipu meaʻai, nā papa hoʻolele, nā meaʻai a me nā mīkini kūʻai.
• Hoʻohana ʻia ka Polystyrene i loko o nā hue wai, nā pahu mālama meaʻai, nā ipu inu a me nā mea hana liʻiliʻi. 

No ke aha he mea ʻino ka plastic?

Ma kahi o 5-30 mau kemika like ʻole e hoʻohana ʻia i loko o kahi ʻāpana plastik. Hana ʻia nā ʻōmole pēpē mai nā ʻāpana plastik he 100 a ʻoi aku paha kemika. ʻAe No ke aha he mea ʻino ka plastic? Eia nā kumu…

ʻO nā kemika i loko o ka plastic ka mea e piʻi ai ke kaumaha

• Hana ʻia ka plastik e like me ka estrogen i loko o ke kino o ke kanaka a hoʻopaʻa ʻia i nā mea hoʻokipa estrogen i ke kino. Bisphenol A (BPA) komo. Hoʻopilikia kēia pūhui i ke koena o ke kino, hoʻonui i ka pale ʻana i ka insulin a hoʻoulu i ke kaumaha.
• Ua hōʻike ʻia kahi haʻawina i paʻi ʻia i ka hoʻonui ʻana o ka BPA i ka nui o nā momona momona i ke kino. 

Komo nā mea ʻino i ka meaʻai

• ʻO nā kinikona ʻawaʻawa e kahe ana i loko o ka plastic a loaʻa i loko o mākou a pau i loko o ko mākou koko a me ko mākou kino. 
• Ke hoʻopili ʻia ka plastic me nā hormones estrogen i loko o ke kino, maʻi puʻuwaiHoʻonui ia i ka pilikia o nā maʻi like ʻole e like me ka maʻi diabetes, nā maʻi neurological, ka maʻi maʻi, thyroid dysfunction, genital malformations a me nā mea hou aku. 

Hoʻopilikia i ka hānau ʻana a me ka hānau ʻana

• ʻO ka Phthalate kahi mea hana ʻino i hoʻohana ʻia e hana i nā plastics palupalu a maʻalahi. Loaʻa ia i loko o nā pahu meaʻai, nā mea nani, nā mea pāʻani, nā pena, a me nā pale ʻauʻau.
• He hopena maikaʻi ʻole kēia mea ʻawaʻawa i ka pale ʻana a hoʻopilikia i nā hormones e pili pono i ka ulu.
• Eia kekahi, hiki i ka BPA ke hoʻoulu i ka hāʻule ʻole a paʻakikī i ka hāpai ʻana o nā wahine.
• Ua hōʻike ʻia kahi haʻawina e hiki i nā mea ʻawaʻawa i loaʻa i loko o ka plastic ke kumu i nā hemahema hānau a me nā pilikia ulu i nā keiki.

ʻAʻole nalo nā plastik

• ʻO ka plastik kahi mea e mau loa.
• ʻO 33 pakeneka o nā mea plastik a pau - nā ʻōmole wai, nā ʻeke a me nā mauʻu - hoʻohana ʻia i hoʻokahi wale nō a kiola ʻia.
• ʻAʻole hiki ke biodegradable ka plastik; wawahi liilii.

Hoʻohaʻahaʻa ka plastik i ka wai lepo

• ʻO nā kemika ʻona mai nā plastics e komo i loko o ka wai lepo a kahe i loko o nā loko a me nā muliwai.
• Hoʻoweliweli hoʻi nā plastik i nā holoholona hihiu. ʻOiai ma nā wahi mamao loa o ka honua, hiki ke loaʻa ka ʻōpala plastik.

hoʻopau i ke kaulahao meaʻai

• ʻO ka plankton, ka mea liʻiliʻi loa o ko kākou moana microplasticsʻAi ʻo ia i a hoʻopaʻa i kā lākou mau kemika weliweli. 
• Hoʻololi nā ʻāpana liʻiliʻi a nahā i ka limu e pono ai ke mālama i ke ola moana nui e hānai ana iā lākou.

Pehea e hōʻemi ai i nā hopena ʻino o ka plastic?

ʻIke ʻia ka pōʻino o nā plastik no ke olakino kanaka. ʻOiai he mea paʻakikī ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻana i nā plastics mai ko mākou honua, pono mākou e wehe iā ia e like me ka hiki iā mākou mai ko mākou ola ponoʻī. 

Pehea? Eia ka mea hiki iā ʻoe ke hana no ia…

• Ma mua o ke kūʻai ʻana i nā ʻeke plastik, e hoʻohana i kahi ʻeke kūʻai lole.
• Mai hōʻike i nā ipu plastik i ka lā i mea e pale ai i ka wai kemika.
• E hōʻalo i ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā ipu meaʻai a me nā mea inu a hoʻohana i nā mea ʻokoʻa e pili ana i ka kaiaola.
• E hoʻololi i nā ʻōmole plastik me nā ʻōmole aniani.
