Plastic waste endangers livestock, fish, and other aquatic creatures. 8.3 billion tonnes of plastic have been manufactured globally Since the 1950s. Plastic is used massively until these days to produce so many different products. Unfortunately, the plastic ecosystem is mainly linear (plastic moves from manufacturers to consumers and after that to the trash can). This puts a burden on our waste management systems (WMS) and consumes a massive quantity of natural resources (SEC, 2018). Plastics found in all main MSW categories, packaging, and containers had the largest plastic capacity in 2018, more than 14.5 million tons (US EPA, 2017). It considers a weakness or failure in WMS because plastic waste in UAE is still existed and reached the livestock living area, and this problem has unaddressed impacts on the livestock.
