Answer 2

Plastics are not eco-friendly

Explanation:

Plastics are non-biodegradable substances. Non-biodegradable substances are those that cannot be broken down into simpler compounds by the micro-organisms. So these waste will not be decomposed and returned back to the ecosystem. Plastics can take more than a thousand years to get degraded. So they pile up, block drains, harm animals, and pollute the environment. They must be disposed off responsibly.

Example: Plastic bags, PET bottles, aluminium cans.
