Dear Ramesh ,
I am writing this letter to share an exciting news with you. Our school has started a campaign that is "Say no to Plastic" . We as volunteers have taken pledge not to use any plastic carry bag or bottle . We have also been asked to reach out to the people and make them take the same pledge .
There are many adverse health effects of plastics .
1. Direct toxicity as in the cases of lead, cadmium, and mercury.
2. Carcinogens as in the case of (DEHP).
3. Endocrine disruption, which can lead to cancers , birth defects, immune system suppression and developmental problems in children .
The conjunction of plastic across the globe is quite staggering . According to oceancrusaders , shoppers worldwide are using a approximately 500 billion single-use plastic bags per year.
To help our environment get better , I hope you will join and take the pledge.
Yours affectionately ,
(your name)
