Question

"The change in packaging has resulted in waste becoming non-biodegradable." Giving two examples from daily life, justify this statement.

Answer 1

Waste is now non-degradable as a result of the shift in packaging. Two facts can be used to support the aforementioned claim:

1. Aluminum foil's use in the packaging industry has led to significant trash accumulation that is growing daily.
2. Different industries produce and employ conventional polymers for packaging purposes. Due to the non-biodegradability of these petroleum-based plastics, the environment is facing serious ecological issues, including a threat to marine life and declining air quality.
