Polythene, the worse creation of human beings. It is the major cause of land pollution. It is a non-degradable substance. Due to the lack of decomposition, it remains as it is for a long period of time. Polybag is frequently used in the market, towns, and villages as it is cheap and having the strength to carry more loads. Disposal of polythene leads to major environmental problems. Many times stray animals eat polybag along with waste food and die.

Instead of polybag, people should use jute or cotton bag while carrying goods. The new technology should be developed to decrease the price of bio-degradable bags.

In my opinion, polythene bags should be banned. Because it is non-biodegradabke material.

But. If the polythene bags are banned.

India has to face many problems. Like;

1- In India, most of the people are directly and indirectly depend on the poly bags. Like in storing vegetables, Snacks or in shopping also.

2- If the government totally banned the poly bags then we don't have much jute or other biodegradable things to overcome the needs of poly bags.

But the correct use of polythene bags to recycle is to use it in road making.

As we know it is not be decomposed.

And in road making, it will help a lot.

According to my opinion, the polythene bags should be banned, because the polythene bags are a kind of non-biodegradable and non-recyclable material.

Although, it's considered to be a very useful and convenient thing in our day to day life to utilize the polythene bags. However, It is a major cause of pollution and also causes fatal to all the living beings.

People should educate and spread the awareness of reduction of plastics and can opt for alternatives like paper bags, clothes bags etc. Which are eco-friendly in nature.

In order to control the pollution, the government must take initiatives and efforts to keep the environment clean.

Everyone should take an effort to keep the environment clean pollution-free.

At last, I want to say, Avoid Polythene.

By banning the plastic bags and adopting safer alternatives like biodegradable bags & bins, you can save the environment. Plastic is responsible for the release of many toxic chemicals into the soil and water. Plastic bags often end up eaten by the animals and clogs their digestive system ultimately leading to death.

Indeed! We all support afforestation without any hesitation, even though we haven't planted a sapling. However, we at least by now have come to the consciousness of planting and growing trees. Simultaneously, we should also remember to protect them too.

Plastics can be highly beneficial and seem user-friendly! Sadly, they are actually not!

The toxic substance they emit when they come in contact with heat can cause unimaginable spoils to the soil where the trees are. The simple logic of plastic, that it doesn't allow the leakage to happen can be the regretted fact when it is under the soil. It doesn't allow any leakage to happen be it the raindrops or any such.

OK! Even if we all get into the track and STRICTLY OBEY TO THROW THE GARBAGE ONLY IN DUSTBINS, and plastics are separated from the degradable wastes and sent for recycling.

Once again, the whole lot process will happen to make that piece of evil work for us again in the nothing but same way.

For that to be recycled again a lot of resources would be employed, the waste liquid from the process causes water pollution, the smoke/gas from the process causes air pollution and keeps us drenched in the poisonous atmosphere forever.

This, it's better to give up plastics rather to give up ourselves! Think for yourself.

Thank you!

In my opinion, the problem can be completely stopped only if we remove from its roots. Laws and acts won't help until they come out from that papers. The government instead of passing laws or spending money to adverstise on banning plastic they should encourage establishing some companies to produce packages made of bio degradable polymers. PM took a brave decision like demonetization, he should think on this which is a more problem to our future generations!

If possible harmful plastic bags production should be stopped and by initially providing subsidies cloth/biopolymer bags industries should be opened. Saving our environment is saving our future generations. But even swatch Bharath banners are of plastic.

Change should start from everyone. Everyone should be responsible and serious about this.

Good evening everyone.

Today's topic is polythene bags must be banned.

So, I think the government provide many of the awareness programs to people and encourage them to uses the lesser polythenes.

I think the polythene bags are must ban in our country because many other countries' already ban the polythene bags. And the people of our country become aware and they can help to become health country. People's use clothes bag's, jute bags and many more options. Because if we are not able to reduce the use of polythenes then the healthy society was not easily built.

Prevention:

1. People must carry a cloths bag's, jute bags etc.
2. Properly decomposed.
3. Creating awareness and encouraging people to not use polythenes.

Because every people of the country become responsible and not only become the dependent of government.

Thank you.

In my point of view, plastic should ban because it is harmful and for future generation also first of all govt should seize the plastic manufactures companies then automatically plastic usage reduces by people.

Yes. Plastic bag must be banned. As it is non-biodegradable and has a huge impact on pollution particularly land pollution. Plastic bags require near about 1000years to decompose so it leads to severe problem towards mankind and to animals also.

Various problems like;

Land pollution.
Skin related problem.
Death of animal and so on.

So, I think that is the duty of every citizen to minimize the use of polythene bags, also we should educate and spread awareness regarding the use of polythene bags.

The Government should also make some stringent rule and laws to so that there should be the minimum use of polythene bags and make our country clean and pollution free. Thank you.
