Paper straws may harm the environment more than plastic, study suggests

مطالعے کا دعویٰ، کاغذی اسٹرا پلاسٹک سے زیادہ ماحول کو نقصان پہنچا سکتے ہیں

अध्ययन का दावा, कागज़ के स्ट्रॉ प्लास्टिक से ज़्यादा पर्यावरण को नुकसान पहुँचा सकते हैं

Paper straws may harm the environment more than plastic, study suggests

Key points

اہم نکات

मुख्य बातें

  • Paper straws, long seen as the greener alternative to plastic, may actually do more harm to the environment than plastic ones, according to a new study.
  • Researchers point to the chemicals used to make paper straws water-resistant and to the resources needed to produce them.
  • The findings suggest that swapping plastic for paper is not a simple fix, and that reusable options remain the kindest choice for the planet.
  • کاغذی اسٹرا، جنہیں طویل عرصے سے پلاسٹک کا ماحول دوست متبادل سمجھا جاتا رہا ہے، ایک نئی تحقیق کے مطابق پلاسٹک سے زیادہ ماحول کو نقصان پہنچا سکتے ہیں۔ محققین نے ان کیمیکلز کی طرف اشارہ کیا ہے جو کاغذی اسٹرا کو پانی سے محفوظ بنانے کے لیے استعمال ہوتے ہیں، اور ان کی تیاری میں لگنے والے وسائل کی طرف بھی۔ تحقیق سے ظاہر ہوتا ہے کہ پلاسٹک کی جگہ کاغذ لانا سادہ حل نہیں، اور دوبارہ استعمال ہونے والے متبادل ماحول کے لیے بہتر ہیں۔
  • कागज़ के स्ट्रॉ, जिन्हें लंबे समय से प्लास्टिक का पर्यावरण-अनुकूल विकल्प माना जाता रहा है, एक नए अध्ययन के अनुसार प्लास्टिक से ज़्यादा पर्यावरण को नुकसान पहुँचा सकते हैं। शोधकर्ताओं ने उन रसायनों की ओर इशारा किया है जिनका इस्तेमाल कागज़ के स्ट्रॉ को पानी-प्रतिरोधी बनाने के लिए होता है, और उनके उत्पादन में लगने वाले संसाधनों की ओर भी। निष्कर्ष बताते हैं कि प्लास्टिक की जगह कागज़ लाना सरल समाधान नहीं है, और दोबारा इस्तेमाल होने वाले विकल्प ग्रह के लिए बेहतर हैं।
