Project 4: It's a plastic world

The production of plastic has doubled in the last 15 years from 150 M tones to 300 M tones of yearly production. In recent years a lot of research has been done around BPA - a chemical found in plastic, on how it affects our hormones, making men’s genitals smaller, woman infertile and how it is generally bad for you.

The government ordered a new study that has shown that BPA is actually good for our health, and they denied the other research marking it wrong. Shrinking Genetical Disorder has become a global Pandemic, affecting males all over the world, waiting list for plastic surgery, divorced couples. How long can people struggle with the new normal, called the Plastic era.
