"Only we humans make waste that nature cannot digest". Mankind uses ample amounts of plastic. Say each family in India disposes of 40kgs of plastic every year. It’s alarming to know of the amount of waste, particularly plastic waste we as humankind generate. It’s significant to understand the harms of plastic and make initiatives to curb the usage of it. Well, it’s true that plastic comes across as the thing that makes routine work, lives appear convenient and cheap. You go to market without a carry bag of yours and make use of polythene bags. The utensils of plastic are way cheaper, but even more dangerous. There’s a need to make people aware, and confirm that the production of plastic is curbed. The accumulation of plastic waste and its mismanagement lead to various hazards to the environment. In any way that plastic causes harm to nature, human beings and other species come across as a thing called plastic Pollution. Pollution refers to contamination, and when plastic contaminates the nature it is called plastic pollution. The government needs to check on plastic usages. We should shut down the manufacturing of plastics, and we as genuine citizens should see to its judicious management. Plastic waste doesn’t decompose easily. It’s likely to remain there for years. And burning plastic is even more dangerous. A lot of people when burning the garbage also burn plastic along with it. There’s a need for real execution of plans. Reusing and recycling plastic is a thing that we all know about for really long. But do we have real implications for them? There’s a need for initiatives. The major factor of plastic pollution is plastic, as we see. We could cut down the plastic pollution by cutting down the use of plastic. The most important thing about not using plastic could be replacing it with something convenient and accessible. One could make use of paper bags instead of polythenes. And for plastic made utensils one could use the steel or the paper ones if they’re being used for the purpose of disposal. There’s a need for creating awareness and cutting down on plastic usage.
