Can we create a "plastic free world" - and would we want to?

I think yes, because: The United Nations (UN) Environmental Assembly was held in Nairobi, Kenya, in December 2017. For the first time in the UN Environment Assembly, world leaders have signed resolutions to clean up our air, land and water. UN Member States have recognized that increasing trends in production and consumption are detrimental to human health and the environment. The Assembly paid special attention to plastic pollution and the accumulation of waste in the oceans, urging governments to implement measures to prevent the use of plastic waste, such as bottles and other disposable packaging. "If the current pollution does not decrease, then by 2050, At sea, there will be more plastic than fish, "said the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP). The UNEP also announces that 8 million tonnes of various plastics - bottles, packaging and other plastic waste - are being emitted every year to the ocean, destroying ecosystems and entering food chains. According to the latest Sea At Risk report, more than half of the plastics waste entering the oceans and seas in Europe consists of bottles and cups for taking away coffee.
