Now a days, plastics become very important in our daily life, even though we should avoid them as far as possible as for the following reasons:
• Plastics are non-biodegradable and take a lot of time to decompose.
• Plastics are not eco-friendly. By burning plastics, poisonous fumes are released that cause air pollution.
• Sometimes cows and other animals may eat plastics present in the garbage which may choke their respiratory system and even cause death.
• The plastic left in the soil results in soil pollution.
• Plastic bags drained into the water bodies cause threat to the aquatic life also.
• Polybags choke the drains and sewage pipes thus causing lot of trouble.
