Plastic pollution and prevention
Plastic products are not bio-degradable and can remain unchanged for many years. They adversely affect the fertility and the quality of the soil. Plastics products including plastic bags are a health hazard. Exposure to toxic chemicals emitted by plastics causes cancer, decreases the effectiveness of the immune system, and is responsible for many other diseases.
The dumping of plastic bags, plastic bottles, etc. has created an unhygienic condition to our environment. Plastic litter has become major pollution to our towns and cities.
Plastic products, especially plastic bags find their way into rivers and oceans. They are swallowed by fish, seabirds, and other marine creatures leading to death by suffocation.
Plastic products including plastic bags are often disposed of by burning and this releases poisonous gases into the atmosphere. This pollutes the air we breathe and increases global warming.
To prevent plastic pollution, reduce the use of plastic products. If the demand is less, production will decrease. Say "No" to plastic bags. Refuse any plastic bags from shop owners when you are shopping. Carry your own shopping bag.
Carefully separate plastic products from other garbage for recycling.
Stop buying plastic products. Replace plastic bags with bags made of biodegradable materials like cotton and jute and recycled paper bags.
Stop burning plastic as a means of waste disposal. The toxic gases released pollute the air we breathe. It increases global warming. Don't buy bottled water. Always carry your non-plastic water bottle.
