Inquirer readers on plastic pollution, UArts closure, and funding education.

Companies produce more than 400 million metric tons of plastic every year.

It was noted that Coca-Cola was the largest contributor to plastic, being responsible for 11% of the branded plastic pollution all over the world.

From 1876, our country’s very centennial, Philadelphia offered the world a jewel.
