● why is Government of India imposing a ban on the use of Polythene bags. suggest two alternatives to these bags and explain how this Ban is likely to improve the environment

Answer 1

Hey dear Tapsya....

▪Government of India is imposing a ban on the use of Polythene bags because they cannot be degraded naturally by the action of microorganism .
▪because of their non-degredebility, they stay in the soil for a long time and continue to poison it with toxic byproducts that keep leaching from them .
▪Also, they do not allow water to seep in as their waterproof .this Polythene bags when accidentally eaten by stray animals can harm them and can even lead to their death.


☆jute and cloth bags can be used in the place of Polythene bags
☆the advantages of using cloth and jute bags are as follow :

>they are environment friendly as they are biodegradable
>they are renewable and can be easily recycled
>they have more strength than Polythene bags because they are thick and can be used again and again .

<thus using jute and cloth bags will help to reduce pollution >
