    The document discusses the issue of non-biodegradable plastic waste and proposes corn-based plastic as a more sustainable alternative. It notes that currently 50% of plastic ends up in landfills and the rest pollutes the environment. Corn plastic is made from corn starch and has advantages like being renewable and producing fewer greenhouse gases than petroleum-based plastic, but it also has disadvantages like only being compostable in industrial facilities. The document concludes that while corn plastic has advantages over conventional plastic, it still has drawbacks, but promotes it as one way to reduce environmental damage from plastic waste.

    renewable resource
    Compostable
    cost competitive with regular petroleum-based
    resins
    65% less energy
    68% fewer greenhouse gases no toxins
    not blow up like oil

    Disadvantage:
    only compostable in industrial composting
    facilities

    wetter and more acidic
    dump PLA in with their regular PET
    recycling
    corn genetically modified
    many people in the world are starving

    CONCLUTION
    corn plastic made from Polylactid Acid(PLA)
    Manufacturing corn plastic is easy than
    conventional plastic
    The corn plastic still have many
    disadvantage beside many advantage
    Corn plastic is one way to save our
    environtment from damaged
