Briana Bosch emphasizes the need to support the ecosystem through organic practices, noting the adverse effects of plastic on soil microorganisms as she transitioned away from using it.
The overwhelming reliance on plastic in gardening, from seedling trays to landscape fabric, contributes significantly to environmental damage, with most plastics ending up in landfills after short-term use.
Despite the known crisis of plastics in oceans, scientists warn that plastic pollution in soils may be even more severe, affecting both human health and plant development.
To mitigate plastic pollution, it is essential to adopt practices that minimize plastic use in gardening, thereby protecting our ecosystems and health.
