IV Bags

Plastics may have their harm, they are not biodegradable and many other problems that come with it. However, the convenience and the good that plastics provide humans is irrefutable. and the creator, Marina Zurkow does not look down on this fact. Plastics are even able to save lives if used correctly and moderately.

                   

Plastics play a major role in today’s medical industry. Imagine walking into a hospital to get a simple injection. while you sit down and get ready for your shout the doctor tears open the package of the brand new injection tube. One that will only be used on you. Now, what if there were no plastics? The story would be a lot different. plastics able us to produce stuff in vast quantities. If there was no plastics the heat best option is reusing. and I’m sure you don’t want a used tube on you do you?

                   

In “IV Bags,” by Nicole Walker, the author details her daughter fighting for her life. “If it’s true that we are held up by nothing but neutrinos falling down on us from the future from which they emerged, then the IV bag holding you up, today, my daughter, is the sign of that black hole collapsing. Oh, the substance that drips through tubes into you. Let it be more matter than anti. Let it be more light than darkness. Let it be more quantum than gravity. Gravity will only take you down and this IV bag will help you rise up.”

                   

The irony is how petrochemicals have the ability to save a single life at the potential cost of many more. The potential is up to us. How we use plastics portrays if it could be harmful to us or not. Ray Bradbury is very true here,  “Too much of anything isn’t good for anyone.”
