If you could fix one issue in the world what would it be and why? Write 5-7 sentences

Explanation:

There are many problems- poverty, illiteracy, pollution, extremism, diseases, scarcity of food, medicine, lack of infrastructure, uneven distribution of wealth, regional tensions etc. Each need to be individually addressed. However, it seems education holds the key to every solution.

If I could solve any one world problem then I would probably choose to change the development of plastics.

The problems we face now and in the near future are gigantic. Many of these problems could have been avoided by making use of biologically degradable alternatives for plastic.

The very nature of the plastics we normally use is that they don't really decompose.

Petroleum-based plastics like PET don't decompose the same way organic material does. Wood, grass and food scraps undergo a process known as biodegradation when they're buried, which is a fancy way of saying they're transformed by bacteria in the soil into other useful compounds. But bacteria turn up their noses at plastic.

The only real way to break down plastic, I have learned, is through photodegradation. This kind of decomposition requires sunlight, not bacteria. When UV rays strike plastic, they break the bonds holding the long molecular chain together. Over time, this can turn a big piece of plastic into lots of little pieces.

But these pieces and other plastics end up in rivers through wind, carelessness, rains and eventually they end up in the oceans, which is where a lot of discarded plastic is bathed in as much light as water.

In 2009, researchers found that plastic in warm ocean water can degrade in as little as a year. This doesn't sound so bad until you realize those small bits of plastic are toxic chemicals. These end up in the guts of animals or wash up on shorelines, where humans are most likely to come into direct contact with the toxins.

There are alternatives. One solution to this environmental disaster is biodegradable plastic. There are two types currently on the market:

plant-based hydro-biodegradable plastic and petroleum-based oxo-biodegradable plastic.

Polylactic acid (PLA), a plastic made from corn, tops the list as the most talked-about alternative. It decomposes into water and carbon dioxide in 47 to 90 days -four times faster than a PET-based bag floating in the ocean.

I sincerely hope that science will provide real and durable answers for this problem.

the answer is:

d. a story that frightened readers so much they would become suspicious of their surroundings

frankenstein is one of the terror novels wrote by the writers in a sort of bet, lord byron challenged them all to write a ghost story, and the story came to mary shelley in a dream, she wanted to conect with the fears of her society, fears of technology and changes, and she wanted readers to look around, freightened.
