Plastics-Boon or Curse: If we decide to give names to the present age – we can say that we live in the Plastic Age. As plastic is light in weight and easy to mould, in a very short time, it replaced metals for items of daily use like buckets, mugs, pipes, ropes, some furniture and numerous other items like pens, bottles, our spectacle frames and even dressed materials.
