The issue of pollution goes beyond aesthetics. Demonizing a single material, like plastic, without understanding the broader implications can be counterproductive. Plastic, like other packaging materials, has a vital role in protecting products and preventing waste. However, low recycling rates for plastic, compared to materials like metal or glass, highlight systemic issues in waste management rather than the material itself.
