[[ Erciyes University Faculty of Engineering Environmental Engineering Department Prof. Dr. Ibrahim Peker said that plastics are produced from oil or oil exploration. Due to the fact that plastic packaging is extremely light and easy to shape, Peker said that they are widely used, the main types of plastic packaging are "Polyethylentetraftalat (PET), polyvinilkloride(PVC), polytren(PS) and polyethylene(PE). [ Peker who considers that polyethylene is one of the most widely used ingredients in plastic bags, has given the following information: According to the research of the nature in the US, the use of plastic bags in the world range from about 500 million to 1 cent per year. The amount of these bags are packaged but 1 percent. The recovery of a bag is cataly expensive than produce the new one. The processing and conversion of 1 ton of plastic bags for turning projects 4 thousand dollars, the sale of these bilahare to new markets are only 32 dollars. According to a research in 1975, shipping in the oceans were emptied about 3 million 700 thousand kilograms of plastic bags to seas Tags. If the world surface has not enough to plastic trash, this is because the bottom of the sea is used as garbage. "The plastic bags are left to the sea, lacquer and rivers, indicating that the plastic bags reach up to the most uniform corners with the wind, leaking from the grills, Peker said that plastic bags are chemically under light. Peker expresses that damaged plastics are divided into smaller and more toxic petro-polymers in time, "Plastic bags are mixed with soil and water with chemical dissolving. After all, these microscopic particles enter the food chain. They also create pollution in the seas and rivers and click the accessible systems. Neredesa from Antarctica to North Sea, Peker, who grows expresses that every sea has plastic waste in the stomach, said: "In addition, the production of nylon bags leads to the reduction of non-renewable energy such as oil. The energy spent to produce a nylon sachet allows for about 100 meters of a car. It is also much more expensive than the production of disposal of these bags. These bags have a lot of time in nature. A nylon bag that we use for an average of 10-15 minutes should be completely destroyed in nature. Due to all these reasons, many countries restrict the use of nylon bags. For example, Bangladesh has banned the use of plastic bags. China made use of money Tags. In the first place in Ireland, Europe, in 2002, plastic bags were taxed and have been recorded 90 percent reduction in the use of plastic bags in the country until now. Israel, Canada, West India, Botswana, Kenya, Tanzania, South Africa, Taiwan and Singapore; has been liked steps towards baning. [

Peker stresses that these types of measures are quite reduced to the use of nylon bags, said: 'The reduction of the use of nylon bags is economically cost. For example, in China, the paid for nylon has caused about 37 million barrel oil savings every year. One of the tens of people in our country was used to be used 15 billion nylon bags for an average life time if using cloth bags or pouches instead of nylon bags. This will be a positive gap in both environmental and economy. If we take these types of measures across the country, we have made to the economy of the country, and we have reduced a big problem in terms of environmental pollution. Of course, it is necessary to create personal awareness in this regard. A country can minimize the use of plastic bags without any measures and sanctions. The most important aspect of the awareness of the people in this regard. In the awareness of the public in this regard, the press releases large work to local governments, teachers and academicians.
