Greenpeace Philippines warns on use of microwaveable, biodegradable plastics
Greenpeace Philippines’ Zero Waste Campaigner Marian Ledesma said those microwaveable containers emit particles that humans can inhale, aside from the environmental effects.
“Sinasabihan tayo na huwag i-microwave yung mga plastic dahil it can lead to harmful effect. And a lot of doctors still say na kahit microwaveable yung plastic, huwag pa ring gamitin, i-transfer sa mga ceramic or glass na container. Because high heat does have an effect on plastic and a tendency to release it,” Ledesma said.
