"It was a plastic city, one of those that I don't want to see" (Blades)

When we refer to the history of the civilizations of humanity, we find the presence of terrible paradoxes about the work and attitudes of the institutionality of the powers that have had a determining influence on what men and women we have been, are and who possibly we will be. in which we are all linked in a close relationship that identifies us as members of a planetary society, which we can give certain specificities in the last hundred years with the management of some ideological flags on the senses and meanings of progress and development, that has acted irresponsibly in the terrible damage caused to the habitat or quality of life, in which today there is a key and silent character, who has been sold as a human invention for the comfort and practicality of things. We are talking about the use of plastic, which has so much negative impact on the environment, and which has become throughout the world as "garbage that does not degrade" and that large industries and plastic manufacturers care more about the enormous profits, that the future of humanity.

There are some very illustrative phrases, taken from a blog of the Camilo José Cela University, such as: "There are thousands of tons of plastic of various sizes that pollute our oceans, and have a devastating effect on marine fauna and birds. The "Human beings, being at the top of the trophic pyramid, are not exempt from the dangers posed by this serious contamination." .and other phrases from international organizations: The World Health Organization and UNEP have jointly declared that endocrine disruption (one of the effects of plastic) is a global crisis. An international group of scientists has requested that governments declare the plastic as hazardous waste.

Therefore, "development and progress" should reflect on the terrible consequences suffered by the environment and humanity by living with plastic.
