From the moment we wake up in the morning and brush our teeth, to when we watch TV at the end of the day, plastic is all around us.

From the moment we wake up in the morning and brush our teeth, to when we watch TV at the end of the day, plastic is all around us.
Diego Gonzaga writing for Greenpeace:
Everyday, more and more plastic keeps being produced, used and thrown away. In countries where disposable cups are made of plastic, for example, it may take only seconds for one to leave the package, be used, and end up in a trash can. So much plastic is being consumed that there is an area bigger than France of throw-away plastic swirling at all depths in the North Pacific Ocean. It has become so ubiquitous that birds are using it to build their nests.

For over 70 years, plastic hasn't evolved. Now, with SPTek ECLIPSE™, Smart Plastic Technologies has introduced a 1% drop-in additive for polyolefins that preserves performance and processing, stays compatible with recycling pre-activation, and adds an end-of-life safety net.
