Plastik merupakan sampah yang paling banyak dihasilkan manusia akibat dari kebiasaan atau gaya hidup saat ini yang serba ingin praktis. Kebutuhan manusia mulai dari peralatan rumah tangga, alat elektronik, mainan, kemasan makanan, minuman, kosmetik, dan aneka produk lainnya kebanyakan berbahan baku plastik.
Material plastik dipilih oleh manusia karena bahannya murah, tahan lama, ringan, mudah diproduksi, banyak ragamnya, dan mudah diperoleh, sehingga penggunaan plastik cenderung berlebihan.
Sayangnya, material plastik ini tidak mudah hancur. Plastik membutuhkan proses penguraian selama kurang lebih 500 tahun. Plastik mengandung bahan kimia berbahaya, sehingga dapat mencemari air, tanah, dan udara (jika dibakar). Di Indonesia, memiliki kebiasaan menggunakan plastik untuk segala macam, terutama untuk berbelanja dan membungkus makanan.
Sebaiknya mulai sekarang kita bisa mengurangi penggunaan plastik (terutama yang sekali buang seperti kantung kresek). Yang paling penting adalah kita harus selalu membuang sampah pada tempatnya. Lindungi dan pelihara sungai, laut, jalan, tanah, rumput, lingkungan, dan tempat umum lainnya dari pencemaran sampah.
