One of the main environmental problems the world is currently facing is plastic waste. Improper trash disposal is becoming a major problem that is causing pollution and damage to the environment. Plastic waste is a global environmental concern. Two more negative effects of inappropriate plastic waste disposal that cause environmental damage and pervasive pollution are littering and insufficient recycling. Because plastic waste is non-biodegradable and can linger in the environment for hundreds of years, it poses a special problem. Because plastic waste can be consumed by animals or become entangled in it, causing harm or even death, it poses a serious threat to wildlife. Utilizing plastic waste in the construction of civil engineering projects is one sustainable waste management strategy that has gained popularity recently. Using plastic waste in civil engineering construction projects is one such solution. The purpose of this study is to show how different approaches to using plastic waste in construction, such as making concrete, building materials, and roads, can lessen plastic pollution and safeguard the environment. The Chapter also seeks to promote greater study and innovation in this field by highlighting the significance of sustainable waste management techniques. The ultimate objective is to mobilize people to take action and work together to promote ecologically friendly construction practices and solve the global problem of plastic waste.
