the impact of disposable products on the environment
Description
My research work is based on several resources relevant to this topic. It is based on several resources that are relevant and validated for this topic. I used the web as a method because it is very convenient for collecting information. The interviews were used to find out the opinions of people of different ages on the topic. The main goal of the project was to determine the impact of disposable products on the environment and their influence on nature. During the interview, the respondents had to answer several questions related to the topic and, also had to express their personal opinion on the topic. In the interview, respondents are required to provide some information about themselves, such as gender, age will increase, as well as information about what they know about single-use products in their countries and the solutions, projects about this issue. The results of the latest research work may help in further studies. Although there was not much information and there were not many answers, impressive answers were obtained that will help future research. The results of the latest research work will help further research, as impressive responses have been received, and to collect more information, the results of this work should be used to collect additional information. The use of disposable products has become increasingly common in our everyday lives, and the environmental consequences of this are of growing concern. Plastic, in particular, is a major contributor to environmental pollution and has a wide range of implications for ecosystems and human health (Public Health Post, 2023). In recent decades, the production and use of single-use plastics have become a global issue, with an estimated 8 million metric tons of plastic entering our oceans each year (Consumer Reports, 2021). The United Nations has taken a unified approach to tackle this problem, as highlighted by their Community Action Against Plastic Waste (CAPW) and the Plastic Free July campaigns (UN, 2021). This paper will discuss the impact of disposable products on the environment, and the steps that can be taken to reduce their use and mitigate their effects. Plastic pollution is one of the most serious environmental issues of our time and can have devastating effects on marine ecosystems (National Geographic, 2021). The majority of plastic waste is composed of single-use items such as plastic bags, straws, and packaging, which are used once before being discarded and often end up in our oceans and rivers (Plastic Free July 2021). The accumulation of plastic debris in our oceans can lead to the death of marine life, as it can be ingested or entangled (Public Health Post, 2023). Additionally, plastic can also release toxic chemicals into the environment, which can harm human health (Consumer Reports, 2021). In conclusion, the use of disposable products has a wide range of implications for the environment, and steps must be clearly tough and carefully be.

Methods An interview method is a vital tool for data collection in research studies. It can be used to gain insight into the thoughts, experiences, and attitudes of people, in this case, on the topic of how single-use plastic affects the environment. This research will discuss why the interview method was chosen for this study. Firstly, interviews allow me to gain a deeper understanding of the topic and can provide more detailed and accurate information than other forms of data collection. I asked follow-up questions to clarify any points and can probe deeper into the answers to gain more insight. For example, the qualified employee of AliyaIKo, environmentalist Aitmagambetov Bagdat answered complex questions in full, giving clear instructions and indicators. This helps to ensure that the data is reliable and valid, and I could get a better understanding of the respondent's views, experiences, and opinions. Secondly, the interview method is useful for qualitative data, which is useful for exploring how people think and feel about an issue. In this study, I desire to understand how people perceive single-use plastic and its effects on the environment. Through interviews, I could gain a more indepth understanding of people's views and experiences, which can be used to form conclusions about the topic. For instance, I took an interview with my classmate Aida Salzhanova, and her answers were short and typical, like in books. Briefly, I understood from this experience, that I shall take interviews only with qualified persons, which could give me the more clear and more deep answers. Thirdly, the interview method is useful for collecting detailed information in a relatively short amount of time. Interviews can be conducted quickly and efficiently, meaning that in this research I can collect a large amount of data in a short period. This is useful for studies with a limited timeframe, such as this one which is looking into the effects of single-use plastic on the environment. What respondent answered, “Plastic causes serious damage to the environment, from its production to its disposal. Factories producing plastic products emit up to 400 million tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere per year and approximately 800 species of animals are now threatened with extinction due to eating and poisoning with plastic.” By this answer, we can see that he gives statistics and much more essential information, which can help in my research. Fourthly, the interview method allows for a high degree of flexibility. I had an opportunity to adapt the questions to the individual and can adjust the questions to explore different aspects of the topic. This is useful for a study such as this one wherein research I may need to explore different aspects of the issue to form accurate conclusions.
