☢️ When sitting in landfills, plastics don’t degrade. They break down into smaller microplastics which make their way into the water we drink, the food we eat and the air we breathe. Studies have shown the average person consumes 70,000 microplastics annually - causing various health issues including long term reproductive and digestive problems. 

☢️ To make matters worse, as rainwater flows through layers of plastic, additives and colorants leak out and poison the soil and waterways. Additionally, sitting plastics release harmful greenhouse gases such as methane as it decomposes - further contributing to air pollution and global warming. 

☢️ The truth is, 2.7 billion people do not have access to formal waste collection services - making most landfills informal, with no bottom liners, contaminated water collection or gas ventilation. 

Plastics don’t just sit still. Which is why we must divert from landfills by reducing and recovering waste rather than relying on leaking containers. 

At BUYO, we recover agricultural waste into bioplastics that guarantee degradability under natural conditions to help combat the landfill overflow problem.
