According to estimates, the entire human population throws away four million tons of trash on daily basis, out of which 12.8 percent is plastic.

Wouldn’t want to make a scramble out of your brain, right?
Humans have been active species for thousands of years and their rate of activity has increased in recent times due to industrialization, overpopulation, and technological advancements. Despite humankind’s success, the planet has suffered drastically from our progression which has created negative repercussions for the earth to endure.
