Plastic Planet
- Synopsis
- We live in the Age of Plastic. It’s cheap and practical, and it’s everywhere - even in our blood. But is it a danger to us? This documentary takes us on a journey around the globe - from the Moroccan Sahara to the middle of the Pacific Ocean, from a factory in China to the highest peaks of the Alps - to reveal the far-flung reaches of our plastic problem. Interviews with the world’s foremost experts in biology, pharmacology, and genetics shed light on the perils of plastic to our environment and expose the truth of how plastic affects our bodies and the health of future generations.
