This paper is a research on the life cycle assessment (LCA) of plastic bag, bottle and container. In order to compare the environmental analysis of plastic, paper, pulp, aluminium, glass and steel material, it is studied by LCA technique from before-discarded step such as the material collection, processing of product, energy and water consumption, and product transportation, to after-discarded step such as waste product transportation, air and water pollutant discharge, waste generation, and treatment and/or disposal of waste. As a results, plastic material has a better environmental assessment than the other materials in before- and after-discarded step. So, plastic material must be newly concerned with a green material, and must be reappraised to the waste-deposit systems.
