Waste managementOctober 2020Plastic
The Whole Package
by Nathalie Gontard and Hélène Seingier
A necessary book about our society’s addiction to plastic. Nathalie Gontard has been exploring and studying plastic in her laboratory and all over the world for 30 years. Initially fascinated by this magic material’s potential, she watched as stealthily invaded the planet, making traditional materials look dated. She found its footprints on beaches, deep in the soil and even inside countless animals. We now need to face the facts: millions of recyclers and hundreds of inventers of “new materials” won’t be able to stop the steady contamination of our environment. We must eradicate the source of the danger and question politicians and industrialists blinded by their belief in purely material progress. It’s up to us to mobilise ourselves and bring an end to this catastrophic overproduction. It’s up to us to find a way of ensuring our comfort without destabilising this little planet whose tenants we are. We must acknowledge our addiction in order to reduce our consumption to what is strictly necessary. A perfectly accessible challenge that this book encourages us to take up straight away.
