Though plastic is quite useful, yet it causes pollution everywhere. Let’s see how it pollutes our environment. Plastics have become almost an integral part of each and every human being’s life on the planet. There is no company, manufacturer, seller that does not use plastic. Plastics have become ubiquitous. The consumption of plastics across the globe is quite staggering. According to oceancrusaders.org shoppers worldwide are using approximately 500 billion single-use plastic bags per year.
The problem with most of the plastics is their toxicity, strength, and the ability to last long in all types of weather or climate conditions. Plastic bags would not be as dangerous if they would decompose on their own.
Though they are quite useful to human beings, but they are very dangerous for environment and animals. The National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration has confirmed plastic debris kills approximately 100,000 marine mammals every year, as well as millions of birds and fishes.

Plastic bags are non-biodegradable and are extremely hazardous to the environment. They are a major constituent of garbage. Every year many animals die after swallowing these plastic bags. Furthermore, plastic bags block drains and release toxic fumes when burned. The government did impose a ban on the use of plastic bags, but it was short-lived. This, however, should not dissuade the government from taking another step. Jute bags are slowly becoming the trend.
