Plastica Connection (2023)

“There is only one ecosystem. So, if we contaminate one part of the world, it will definitely affect us. If we send our waste to another country, we think we are only contaminating a faraway farmland, but the agricultural product will be exported, it will be eaten, and the plastic will get back into our blood. It’s a kind of trap. And it is an infinite circle”. An incredible trip to Turkey reveals how the western world, the entire European Union, not excluding Italy, is flooding the most fragile areas of the earth with its plastic waste, heedless of the devastating environmental pollution that we will all pay for. And how this devastation stems from the overproduction of disposable plastic on the planet, set to triple in the coming decades, and the impossibility of recycling it all.
