In Plastic, we discover how this amazing material is made from oil and gas. We see how it can be
heated, coloured and moulded into many different objects, from bottles and cups to giant pipes and
window frames. We also discover how plastics are harming our environment and the steps we can
take to minimise its effects.
Fast Fact boxes contain chunks of relevant information, and there is a Plastics Fact File at the back of
the book.
