Paperback. Condition: New. A comprehensive introduction to the plastics life cycle-the impacts on our lives, our future, and our planet-and the actions we can take.Everywhere we look, we are surrounded by plastics: perhaps you have a book in one hand and your phone-made of various metals, plastics, and glass-in the other, or you are reading this on your polyurethane mattress after having flipped on a plastic light switch. In this Essential Knowledge series volume, Imari Walker-Franklin and Jenna Jambeck provide a deep exploration of the entire life of plastic things-plastics production and use, plastic waste generation and management, the environmental and societal impacts of plastics in our environment, and, finally, the policies that can help reduce pollution caused by our heavy use of plastics. One of the most current and comprehensive summaries on the subject, Plastics covers not only ocean and terrestrial plastic pollution but also the potential harms of microplastics on the human body. The authors also explain why we use plastic for so many products, how trash ends up in even the most remote corners of our world, and the alternatives and interventions that can help address our overreliance on this virtually imperishable material. As easily digestible to read as it is important, this book empowers its readers with the crucial knowledge and information they need to make thoughtful consumer choices, influence change, and spark inspiration.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Una introducción detallada al ciclo de vida de los plásticos -cómo impacta en nuestras vidas, en nuestro futuro y en nuestro planetay a las acciones que podemos llevar a cabo.Donde quiera que miremos, estamos rodeados por plástico: quizás tienes un libro en una mano y, en la otra, tu teléfono fabricado con varios metales, plásticos y vidrio; o estás leyendo esto sobre tu colchón de poliuretano, luego de haber encendido la luz presionando un interruptor de plástico. En este volumen de la serie Conocimientos esenciales de MIT Press, Imari Walker-Franklin y Jenna Jambeck ofrecen una exploración profunda de toda la vida de las cosas de plástico: producción, uso, generación y gestión de desechos plásticos, los impactos medioambientales y sociales de los plásticos en nuestro entorno, y, finalmente, las políticas que nos pueden ayudar a reducir la contaminación causada por nuestro uso intensivo de este material.Plásticos es uno de los resúmenes más actualizados y completos sobre la materia; abarca no solo la contaminación de los océanos y de la tierra, sino también los daños potenciales de los microplásticos para el cuerpo humano. Las autoras también explican por qué usamos plástico para tantos productos; cómo la basura termina hasta en los lugares más remotos del mundo, y las alternativas e intervenciones que nos pueden ayudar a enfrentar nuestra excesiva dependencia de este material prácticamente imperecedero. Este libro es tan fácil de leer como importante: empodera a sus lectores con el conocimiento y la información esenciales para tomar decisiones de consumo bien fundadas, influir en el cambio y provocar inspiración.
