Burning tire dumps release hazardous airborne chemicals. The smoke from this burning can pollute water sources, posing a risk to human and animal health if the contaminated water is consumed. It can contain carcinogenic substances and lead to severe health issues, even fatalities, for both humans and wildlife. Therefore, proper and safe disposal of used tires is crucial to protect the environment.
In addition, the fact that tires are thrown into the sea also harms microorganisms. They ingest plastic debris at every stage of the food chain, which can cause death or severely affect physiological functions including nutrition, growth, behavior and reproduction. When plastic and nanoplastics are ingested by marine animals, they become part of the food web and can enter the human food chain. This raises concerns about the spread of plastic pollutants in marine ecosystems and the negative impact on human health.
