Making Mumbai Plastic Free
Who had thought plastic would one day become such an unmanageable problem for the entire world? Plastic is problematic! Its use in almost everything has led to such humongous piles of indecomposable waste matter that it has created real hell of debris on land and in water. The water bodies and the aquatic flora and fauna have been affected the most.
A walk along any river, lake, and beach is sufficient to know the consequences of this ubiquitous ugliness floating. According to Ocean Crusaders, an organization dedicated to fighting plastic pollution 5.25 trillion pieces of plastic debris in the ocean. According to the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration, plastic debris kills an estimated 100,000 marine mammals annually, as well as millions of birds and fishes. Scientists in their recent research have found plastic to be much more toxic than previously expected. Plastic is making our environment highly toxic.
Mumbai too adds to the plastic pollution hugely. Out of 7,500 metric tons of waste generated, 9 % is plastic waste. The flooding of the entire city during monsoons is predominantly caused by the choked drains and sewage system. Plastic is responsible this choking. The beaches in Mumbai are badly polluted, not to mention the plastic inside the sea along the Mumbai coastline.
The need of the hour is to replace plastic with environmental friendly materials. All of us need to join our hands to fight this menace and preserve our beautiful environment. We must stop using plastic altogether. The governments of various nations, including our national Government have launched anti-plastic campaigns. We can make these campaigns by saying ‘NO TO PLASTIC’. Let’s use environment friendly materials such as paper, jute, etc. and clear our planet of the evil of plastic.
The Maharashtra Government has implemented the much needed ban on plastic and plastic bags. This will surely curb the plastic pollution from further deterioration.
PLASTIC A LIVING DEATH
Plastic is one of the most dangerous objects created by human beings.
Every year millions of animals,birds and sea creatures die because of plastic.
This is because poor animals consume pastic,thinking it as a food.Some animals get
trapped in plastic and cannot come out.
This is one of the biggest reason that People of Mumbai have joined hands for a
mission to make Mumbai plastic free.The plastic is not just dangerous but they make a
place look so dirty.The beaches of Mumbai look so dirty because of plastic bags on the
beaches.People have decided to choose other options like Jute Bags and Cotton Bags
as a replacement of plastic.
Plastic is very not degradable and it cannot be destroyed.If you burn it,then plastic
produces harmful gases.If you throw it in water,then poor water animals die by
getting trapped or by eating it.
Thus,its better to fully ban the use of plastic.
