Our guest this week is Ignacio Marco, who lives in Madrid.
Ignacio was a Senior Executive in the Plastics industry for his whole Career and worked for the likes of Exxon and Repsol. He worked on large Plastic Production plants from Spain to Mexico and even worked on building a plant in China.
Towards the end of his career, he joined the Plastics Europe, there he has begun to work on Plastics and Sustainability. He lobbies politicians and companies to help provide solutions to the problem.
Ignacio says that after Climate Change, Plastic Pollution is the second biggest environmental problem we are struggling with and, when I thought about it, that seems to be the case to me. Plastics take a few hundred years to break down and the biggest issue is plastics entering the Seas. Where does most of it come from?
Ignacio gives us an idea of how much Plastic is produced globally every day, an enormous figure.
In terms of personal responsibility, Ignacio identifies Single Use plastics to be a big culprit, something we might use for a minute or an hour and then it must be disposed of and takes a hundred years to degrade.
What is the solution? Ignacio gives us perspective.
And we play out with an absolute classic song
