Polythene bags must be banned!

Hello friends.

According to my opinion, polythene bags should be banned because polythene is harmful in many ways such as.

1) When polythene is burned it produces many harmful gases which cause air pollution and when we breathe, it affects our respiratory system.

2) polythene is non-biodegradable. It takes many years in degradation which causes soil pollution and result is that fertility of the soil is decreased.

3) Many peoples after using polythene they throw it and when these polythene bags consumed or eat by the animal such as cow, dog. It causes cancer.

4) if we recycle polythene it requires a lot of money.

At last but not the least, I suggested that we have to replace polythene bags with the reusable bags such as jute bags.

Thanks.

Now, I am going to share my thoughts about, plastic should be banned because it is very harmful to our environment, not only for humans but also for animals and nature. Sometimes many animals eat these plastic bags, which results in death. It takes many times to decompose when we are buried in the soil or if we burnt it, it releases harmful gases like SO'and CO' which cause the greenhouse effect. Whenever we use plastic bags, we throw them in our surroundings which look so dirty and clumsy. If we throw it in the ocean, it also kills our marine lives. So, we should think about this regard and make use of paper and cloths bags. And we should apply the policy of Reduce, Reuse, Recycle which helps to reduce the use of plastic bags because we don't ban plastic bags totally because it has some benefits like easily carriable, waterproof, low cost, etc.

Thank you for reading my thoughts about this topic.

Hello everyone.

We are discussing the topic "polythene bags must be banned" which becomes a major problem for human being and animals as well.

In my opinion, this should be banned but the alternative of this should be encouraged.

There are so many reasons for the ban of polythene like most of the polythene waste are mixing in oceans and create problems for marine life. A lot of animals are eating polystyrene. When we eat these ocean fishes we are indirectly eating polythene.

These days everything including foods is wrapped in polythene and when these products are exposed to heat then dangerous chemical such as BPA released in food.

Like this, so many problems are generated by polythene.

There is a need for awareness to people and everyone should think about it.

It is a responsibility to every human being to clean our planet.

We can use biodegradable plastic, paper bags, cotton bags etc instead of polythene.

So my conclusions are polythene should be banned and replacement should be provided.

Thank you.

According to my opinion, I think polythene bags should not be banned. As it is very easy to carry. Nowadays 80% of the products are made up of polythene. So the end of polythene means the end of polythene products as well as bags which affects the company's productivity. It will not have any effect on its economic value but also will result in increased unemployment in the country.

So if any country has decided to ban the polythene then first it must provide its suitable replacement. The replacement which will provide the same solutions to the people and well as gives its better contribution towards the development of the country and to reduce the pollution.

Here if we move towards the use of paper bags instead of polythene bags, then after some time we will suffer from many environmental problems because cutting of trees for paper leads to deforestation which leads to soil erosion. So paper bags are not a suitable replacement for it because we don't want a solution for some time. We actually need a permanent solution of it.

I think the use of polythene bags should not be banned. Instead of it, we should try to find a solution to reusing it. Recycling of polyethene doesn't lead to any environmental problems as well as easy to carry.

First, we need to change ourselves them only we can Change the world.

Hi everyone.

In my point of view, polythene is one of the boons for our world. Why because 5 grams of polythene can carry 500grams of the load. And also it has long durable, waterproof characters. But the problem is, the people those who are all using polythene are not handling properly. They are all simply throwing outside of his campus. This activity creates soil pollution as well as water pollution. So people should know the principle of 3R. That means, (reduce, reuse, recycle). If everyone one follows this, then we will avoid pollution.

And also, I would like to tell, ban polythenes, where the people are not following the 3R principle.

Thank you.

Hello everyone.

I am Abhishek Anand & I am from New Delhi.

So we are going to discuss a very serious topic, about "plastic should be banned".

Because as you all know that, I am from Delhi and how the pollution goes up here. The main role that takes a part in all of these is plastic so it must be taken into serious consideration.

Every day we can see lots of garbage and stuff are being come from the home and being dumped in a particular area.

So from the essence of banning plastic products and plastic polybags, we can use paper products or biodegradable products.

Polythene bags are made of non-renewable resources and are petroleum based. They consume a large amount of heat when fabricated. They come in lightweight and are manufactured in large amount. No one stops manufacturing unless we stop using them. They don't give up since that's how they make money.

It's up to us to use paper covers, jute eco-friendly bags. They don't damage easily and degradable. Polythene may or may not banned but can be replaced by educating everyone. We arent only destroying our atmosphere but also our fellow living beings like cows. Cows don't know the taste and eat covers along with food. We are the reason for all these environmental imbalances. It's just a matter of second to take a jute bag and go for buying. Govt must ban polythene since we can't do anything about shopping malls giving off plastic bags.

No not necessary.

Because as citizens of Indian, what is our responsibility to not use it. If these kinds of compromises did not do by our people how we aspects the development of any country. Everyone knows it. It s harmful for animals, earth, environment, people's so I think it is a very small thing so not need to ban it's our responsibility.

Poison also kill the humans but anyone not demanding for the ban. Acid is used on people but no one is not demanding to stop manufacturing this, why polythene.

So I think it's our responsibility to not use, not the government.

There are paper bags, and cotton bags available why we are not buying these things.

If everyone is trying to pollute the environment then I am asking why the government have to spend money to clean it why. And what is your responsibility? So no need to ban it people are cheep mentality they are going to do this again and again.

Thanks.

I see everyone saying the same thing kept in a different perspective.

I feel banning polythene bags isn't the right choice to make.my points are,
1. A poor vendor in a market won't be able to sell his goods in paper bags(rs 5 per piece at least talking of which he would get at least some 10-20 covers of plastic).
2. Moreover, if we start using paper bags, there will be new industries set up to make them and this leads to deforestation.
3. We can still use polythene bags that are above 40 microns so they are not digested in the animals and they come out of the digestive system as it is.
4. I feel we must use some sort of essence that will make animals not to eat the plastic bag.
5. The best way to act against plastic would be to recycle and reuse the ALREADY existing plastic.
6. And the best way to use plastic is to make plastic covers or use them in laying roads.

THANKS.

Well, I'm in favour of banning polythene bags as.

* They are non-biodegradable hence they don't decompose and cause land pollution.
* Burning these polythene bags cause harmful smoke which effects the wildlife and cause air pollution.
* Many animals eat these polythene bags and they died as they can't digest.
* Instead of polythene bags we can use jute bags and paper bags which are eco-friendly for nature.
