LOCURA DEL PLÁSTICO
“Locura del plástico” reúne los trabajos de 25 artistas de México y Estados Unidos que se dieron a la labor de crear obras de arte con basura de las calles y playas de Mazatlán: bolsas de plástico, popotes, botellas, tazas y más.
La esperanza de estos creadores es sensibilizar e inspirar al público a tomar acciones que logren impactar positivamente a su entorno, ya que el plástico es una de las mayores amenazas ecológicas para el planeta Tierra.

Plastic Madness!
How many times a day do you use plastic? Most people use this versatile material everyday for an extraordinary number of uses. Unfortunately, plastic is an increasingly serious threat to our planet—clogging our neighborhoods, highways, soil, beaches and oceans. World-wide plastic production is increasing dramatically and every year we produce approximately 300 million tons of plastics. Unfortunately, plastic does not biodegrade like natural materials, it decomposes extremely slowly, primarily by fracturing into smaller and smaller pieces. Few people realize that every piece of plastic ever created is still present in some form today and predictions of decomposition rates vary from 500 to a million years!
