Of the 150 billion pairs of disposable gloves produced annually, an estimated 100 billion pairs of gloves are buried in landfill each year — enough to stretch to the moon and back 30 times. New research has found that the pandemic has created an estimated 8.4m tons of plastic waste across 193 countries, and about 25,900 tons of that waste has leaked into the ocean.
Litter on land almost always translates to litter in water sources and the pandemic has caused a significant increase in PPE waste. If plastics weren't enough, environmentalists are now concerned about the increase in disposable gloves making its way onto beaches and subsequently into rivers, lakes and oceans where animals, individuals, ecosystems and communities are being negatively impacted. From accidental ingestion to cross-contamination and clogged sewer lines, typical single-use gloves are wreaking havoc on the planet.
With increased awareness on the importance of disposable gloves arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, people are expected to continue using them even after the pandemic recedes. But don't fret it! If you feel guilty about throwing your gloves into the garbage, then we have something for you!
