This vlog is focused on finding Eco-friendly alternatives for plastics that is generally unpopular to the majority. We plan to inform the people about this possible plastic alternatives to further enhance the awareness of the people and improve our eco system. According to research...

There are many Eco-friendly alternative can used in order to avoid plastic adverse effects on health and environment.

These alternatives include:

Glass
Glass is made from sand and not made from fossil fuels unlike plastics.

Reusable Shopping Bags
Most supermarkets offer plastic bag alternatives today. Some of it have patterns and some reusable packaging are printed with the establishment’s name. These reusable bags come in canvas, cotton, hemp, leather, fiber, and woven plastic.

Plastic Additives
While some are preoccupied in making plastic alternatives, there are some who are making conventional biodegradable thermoplastics by using metal compound additives called prodegradant concentrates (PDCs).

Milk Protein
Scientists indicate that milk protein can help produce a biodegradable plastic to make insulation, furniture cushions, packaging, and other products.

Chicken Feathers
The United States found out that disposing of chicken feathers is a problem, but with the help of innovation, they can be a material useful to make a water-resistant thermoplastic. Chicken feathers are  consist of keratin, a tough and durable protein like plastics.

Liquid Wood
Liquid wood looks, feels and acts like plastics but unlike petroleum-based plastic, this is biodegradable and suitable for various product packaging.

PCL Polyesters
Polycaprolactone is a synthetic aliphatic polyester that’s  not created from renewable resources but could degrade after weeks of composting.

PHA Polyesters
Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) polyesters are biodegradable plastics that resemble with man-made polypropylene.

PLA Polyesters                                    Polylactic acid (PLA) is an aliphatic polyester and can be made from lactic acid. PLA can also be created from wheat or sugarcane.  https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.researchgate.net/post/What_are_the_alternatives_of_plastics/amp

We therefore had concluded that this alternative are no known and not commonly used due to the fact that some of this alternatives are costly although some are cheap. Some of this alternatives are also not commonly found in households. We hope that this alternatives to be known and used by the people in order to have a healthier and better environment.
