About: What Is Plastic? From the clothes we wear to the food we eat, plastic is a household staple for all of us. It has transformed our lives in terms of food security, medical care and quality of life. The word plastic comes from the Greek word Plastikos, meaning “moldable” or “formable.” In the following weeks, we will discuss how plastic is made and why it is impossible to imagine life without it. We will also share with you how something so transformative can be both a blessing and a curse. #ocn #plastic #recycling #plasticpollution
