Answer:

We produce millions of tons of single use plastic every year, most of which cannot be recycled. Single use plastic includes plastic bags, polythene, straws, plastic glass, soda and water bottles and food packaging items etc. These single use plastics are used only once and then thrown away as a garbage for recycle.

Plastic bags or plastics are non biodegradable and usually goes into a landfill where it is buried or it gets into the water and after some by various means it goes into the ocean. They enter into soil and water bodies and break down into small particles however they do not decompose. They remain in the soil and water for more than hundred years and release toxic chemicals and thus damaging our beautiful planet and environment.  The plastic bags that enter the water bodies are a major cause of the water pollution and thus deteriorating our environment in every possible way.

Single use plastic is very harmful for human beings, animals and marine creatures. In the water bodies or in marine aquatic animals consume plastic particles along with their food. Plastic cannot be digested and thus gets trapped in their intestine and results in serious health problems.

The production of plastic bags that is single use plastic releases toxic chemicals that can cause serious illness among those involved in the production of it. Plastic is one of the major causes of environmental pollution. Polluted environment is a major cause of various diseases in human beings.

We need to understand the problems being caused by the single use plastic and stop their use. It is therefore obvious that we need to use less plastic unless it is very necessary, move towards environment friendly products and services and should come up with technologies that recycles plastics more efficiently.  We should stop using single use plastic to protect our planet, environment and human beings.
