Styrofoam: More Harmful than Helpful
Abstract (type = abstract)
Banning styrofoam at Rutgers University
Abstract (type = summary)
Going green has become increasingly trendy throughout the nation. From saving plastic bags to replacing plastic water bottles, people have been taking steps to becoming more environmentally aware. The next step is banning polystyrene, better known as Styrofoam, a harmful product still in our society. Banning Styrofoam is easy as replacing canvas bags with plastic ones. Styrofoam is a non-biodegradable substance used for insulation, most commonly found in keeping our beverages hot and storing our leftovers. However, its harmful effects outweigh its cheap and convenient use, drawing significant cause for a ban on polystyrene. In an attempt to make our community greener, we will put forth effort to eliminate use of Styrofoam at Rutgers through communication with the purchasing department and various deans.
