Plastic a new and powerful enemy of the environment . I agree with this statement.

*********************************************************************
The use of plastic has a bad effect on the environment:
********************************************************************
1. Plastic is non biodegradble . so, articles made up of plastic like PET bottles, bags etc do not get decomposed by natural process and leads to land pollution.
2. Plastics are non environmental friendly.
3. The waste plastic articles disposed in waste water can lead to clogging of water in sewers and drains.This makes the dirty water to overflow on streets and roads leading to unhygenic conditions.
4. Sometimes animals Cow eat up the polythene bags wrapped along with left over food .This can choke the respiratory system of animal or form a plastic lining in their stomach.This can cause the death of animal.
5. When plastic material is burnt , they produce poisonous gases which pollute the air.
************************************************
So, friends save the earth by avoiding plastics and following 5R'sPrinciple
---> REDUCE, REFUSE, REUSE, RECYCLE AND RECOVER.
----->We should try to reduce the use of plastics by using other materials like cotton or jute bags for shopping.
---> Plastic items should be disposed properly.
-->We should reuse the plastic containers which come with jams and pickles to store salt ,sugar etc.

While plastic has many valuable uses, we have become addicted to single-use or disposable plastic — with severe environmental consequences. Around the world, one million plastic drinking bottles are purchased every minute, while up to 5 trillion single-use plastic bags are used worldwide every year. In total, half of all plastic produced is designed to be used only once — and then thrown away. Plastic waste is now so ubiquitous in the natural environment that scientists have even suggested it could serve as a geological indicator of the Anthropocene era. So how did we get here?
