turkey is a big importer of plastic waste. the raw materials to make new plastic crude oil is too expensive turkey doesn't collect its own plastic for recycling so tons of waste imported from other countries to be reused. the province of a few on the western edge of central anatolia. and a deliberate landscape marred by wild garbage dumps because there's no effective sanitation a few 100 meters away is what some call europe's largest plastic waste recycling plant it processes $10000.00 tons of plastic waste a month half of it comes from abroad mostly from germany the demand for plastic in turkey is great but not enough domestic plastic waste is being recycled. if we want to prevent imports we would have to separate our waste properly here in turkey the ministry in charge is currently working on that but in order to get

enough garbage we need to import it. it would actually really be worthwhile collecting plastic in turkey a study by the environmental protection organization w w f states that most plastic waste in the mediterranean comes from turkey waste separation here doesn't take place in households but on the streets everywhere in the country there are a plastic or paper waste collectors like serdar he spends about 12 hours a day in his rounds and earns up to $300.00 euros a month. janish showing you didn't we collect pet bottles sheet metal cardboard and nylon for recycling everything people using every day life. said our benefits from his compatriots lack of environmental awareness only an estimated 40 to 50 percent of turkish garbage is separated the rest ends up in huge

landfills near istanbul but with the piles of plastic waste continuing to grow the government is trying to get a grip on it since the beginning of the year consumers have to pay for plastic bags and supermarkets environmentalists complain that that's not enough. it's not just about recycling plastic it's about limiting the production of plastic products. restricting plastic production politicians around the world have been talking about it for years meanwhile the plant in the turkish province of afghan is running at full speed 7 days a week 24 hours a day. and was there on the subject of plastic it's becoming an ever more pressing global environmental problem and reasonable restrictions on plastic production remain elusive still every year more than 400000000 tons of the stuff of produced

worldwide more than a 3rd of that is single use plastics shopping bags water bottles plastic food containers thrown away after one use and only a small amount is getting recycled most disposable plastics are actually produced and asia especially in china but north america middle east and europe are also a major producers of disposable plastics africa only accounts for one percent the proportion of plastic ways that is recycled to make new plastic is very small germany for example produces $5200000.00 tons of plastic per year and only around 15 percent of it gets recycled but governments around the world are slowly waking up to the problem the u.s. and canada for example have banned micro plastic these little beads in cosmetic products for example and many countries in africa asia and europe have also banned or at least regulated plastic bags to talk about the growing problem that is

classic pollution joining the story of our times and walker from the w.'s environment this times in. looking at germany german retailer aldi which is also present around the globe they have just announced it in germany wants to charge one euro cents for plastic bags of food vegetables and for example what will that make a difference i don't think so i think at best that's balik. although i'm not entirely sure what is symbolic of because i think if they were genuinely keen to make a statement they'd be looking to slash plastics right across that that chain of products and that doesn't seem to what's happening the german government as i understand is actually in the go stations with supermarkets not only is generally in germany and they are talking about the trying to supermarkets to phase out or completely stop offering customers these lightweight plastic bags or for the

holidays that to be acceptable consumers i don't think is all that likely to be except maybe something's a thrust upon us and we go along with it but i think the thing is that in actual fact germany is not proposing outright ban just as it hasn't done with plastic carrier bags i mean a lot of countries around the world have actually as you said they've regulated they've imposed bans jimmy hasn't done that it's there is a fee to pay for them now but still a lot of people use them and there's no sign of a band on the horizon we've all heard of and seen the pictures of this gigantic plastic garbage patch in the us this is a pacific ocean. and according to recent study 90 percent of all the plastic of all plastic in the oceans comes from 10 rivers 8 of which are in asia 2 in africa so can we reach europeans and americans don't we just blame asia and africa and lean back and realize it's there that would be nice right but no i mean that's a study that has been it's been quoted a lot personally i don't think that it gives a complete picture of course

a complicated it's a lot more complicated i mean plastic pollution is a global problem and it needs to be tackled at so many different angles asia and africa they have their part to play in that without a doubt but i'm with you take african example that's a continent where countries have been taking decisive action there's been a lot of bands introduced that rwanda was one of the 1st that was over a decade ago and more than 20 other countries have come up behind since then and they followed suit asia there are some bands there to. by taking different action in asia i mean china which for decades took plastic from the western world to recycle and said no thanks we don't want that anymore malaysia was one of the countries that stepped in fill the gap but it also now has said nope we are now thinking about sending certain shipments back to their countries of origin some rethinking going on there cross the times and work of environment s. thank you very much for joining me thank you. noble and ukraine is the site
