Answer:
Cummins empowered the less privileged to manufacture paper bags and thereby reduce the use of plastic bags
Background
As estimated, an average individual in Pune uses around 130 plastic bags/year and the number is increasing, owing to the rapid growth of industrialization. Hence, it becomes critical to curb the usage of plastic bags that are non-biodegradable in nature and negatively impact the environment.
Approach and effort
Cummins launched the Paper Bag Project under which plastic bags are replaced by bags made from newspapers. Employees not only created awareness in the community about the ill effects of the usage of plastic bags, but also trained various NGOs on how to make paper bags from daily newspapers. This has generated employment for the differently-abled groups and empowered the less privileged to make a positive difference in their lives and to the community.
In line with our mission of 'demanding that everything we do leads to cleaner, safer and healthier environment', the focus of the project was to replace plastic bags by newspaper bags, firstly in-house (to the extent possible) and secondly, to tap the external market simultaneously. Cummins employees donated newspapers to provide as raw materials to the NGOs so that they could produce the paper bags.
In a step towards replacing the plastic bags being used inside Cummins, various opportunities were identified for usage of paper bags instead of plastic bags. A demand for an estimated 40,000 paper bags has been generated within the Company.
In addition to efforts being dedicated internally, various steps were undertaken to increase the usage of paper bags outside of Cummins as well. Various Self-help groups of women were trained to market these paper bags in order to get orders regularly from the open market.

भारत में प्लास्टिक पर प्रतिबंध
Explanation:
अपने दैनिक जीवन में हम लगभग हर जगह प्लास्टिक का उपयोग करते हैं। दिन की शुरुआत से लेकर हमारे सोने तक का समय
हमारे जीवन के आधे हिस्से को प्लास्टिक और निर्विवाद वस्तुओं के विभिन्न रूपों के माध्यम से सुना जाता है
जबकि वैश्विक मुद्दों से उत्पन्न होने वाले प्लास्टिक के उपयोग पर प्रतिबंध लगाने की बहस ग्लोबल वार्मिंग के मुख्य कारण की तरह है, प्रदूषण प्लास्टिक के कारण होता है, क्योंकि हम इसे जला नहीं सकते हैं या यह पानी में अघुलनशील है। और प्लास्टिक के अत्यधिक उपयोग से संदूषण पर बुरा प्रभाव पड़ता है।
इन प्रदूषकों से हमारे ग्रह पृथ्वी की रक्षा करने के प्रयास में, हमारे वैश्विक स्वास्थ्य विभाग ने एक अभियान शुरू किया, जहां नागरिकों / लोगों को किराने के वाहक या कुछ और के रूप में प्लास्टिक बैग का उपयोग करना चाहिए, इसके बजाय उन्हें कागज या जूट बैग का उपयोग करना शुरू करना चाहिए। दैनिक उद्देश्य।
अगर हम बदलाव लाना चाहते हैं तो हमें इसे एक कदम आगे ले जाना होगा।
