Plastic

Plastic is a synthetic material made from polymers, which are long chains of molecules. It is versatile, lightweight, and durable, making it widely used in packaging, construction, and consumer goods. However, plastic waste poses significant environmental challenges due to its slow decomposition and harmful effects on ecosystems.
