but plastics are not good for the environment. it has many side effects. like burning of plastic can release many harmful gases. since it's non-biodegrable and if animals swallow these plastic, then it can damage their reproductive and digestive system. there are much more..
what we can do is, we can use just or paper bags instead of polythene and plastic bags. for wrapping, we can use paper wrappers. we can use glass containers or metal ones instead of plastic. we can replace plastic pouches by cloth and paper ones.
