I believe polyethene bags should be banned because it is not decomposed in earth and it takes more time to decompose. Recently I heard one news in television, some workers are ground these polyethene bags and it is mixed with rice by this we attack with so many diseases. Suppose these are burned in the atmosphere, it produces pollution by this way ozone get damage.

A single plastic bag can take up to 1000 years to decay completely which makes the bags stay in environments longer. More and more people around the world are getting aware of environmental issues surrounding plastic bags.

1. Plastic bags is cheap but it is harmful to atmosphere. Produces more pollution.

2. It is non-renewable resource and takes 1000 years to complete degrade.

3 Polythene causes death of animals like cow and goats because it chocks the respiratory system.

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.

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.

Good evening friends, Polythene bags, nowadays plays a vital role for human beings. Everywhere we find even for a small purpose, we use it. In spite of using of bags, we used polythene bags as we all know that causes a great loss like poisonous effect of soil, fruits and vegetables and such kind of things. From now, if we are not conscious about that, in future we will face a lot of problems. Hence polythene should be banned and govt should lunch strong rule for using polythene bags with fine. Not only govt but we all people should care for that and it should be the habit and we must take bags for our daily use and also paper bags and such type of materials are used to recover the place of polythene bags. It should be the only habit from people to govt to set mind and give up the uses of polythene bags forever from now.

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.

Hi everybody,

I want to say about polythene bag is used or not, In my opinion, polythene is not used because it is made by many dangerous matters, and after burning it harmful gases is produced those gases produce pollution in the environment and produce air pollution. We saw in near ours that animal such cows etc are used polythene for food it is very dangerous for health and it may cause of death. So polythene must be banned and use only paper beg, clothes beg these are not harmful and recyclable. So government Should do effort for this matter. And if everyone should not use polythene I would make sure everyone can live more two years or more extra.

If our environment has no pollution we can take pure air in respiration process.

We won't have a society if we destroy the environment.

Hello everyone 👋.

As we all know currently we have an ambition to make our world and environment clean. And for that we a taking so many steps. And I think banning polythene bags could be one of the great decisions we can take to make our environment clean. Polythene bags have some eradicate and devastating effects on our environment like.

1. Polythin is something which cannot be disposable easily.
2. Burning polythin releases the hot and hazardous gas into the environment.
3. Some non-humans like cows and other animals may sometimes eat the polythene because of what is in there which leads to serious health concerns or death of those animals.
4. We have a good alternative of polythene bags which are paper bags which not hazardous or something.

So, I think we should ban the polythene.

Hi, Everybody,

As my point of view, polythene should be banned by Indian government. And some laws must be enacted against the use of polythene. Today we are using polythene freely but on same place, we must know the harms of using polythene. We should use jute or cotton bags, it will beneficial for all environment, people health and as well as economy. USE of jute and cotton's bags will provide trade to local people and it will be the cheap source in place of polythene and will be environmental friendly.

USE of these bags helps us to reduce the soil, water and air pollution.

Finally, I want to say one thing that it depends on us that we really wants to save our environment as well as ourselves or we will wait for any miracle who will eradicate this great pollution problem.

Hello everyone,

In my point of view, polythene bags should be banned. These bags are made up of oil. The benefit is an easy way to carry everywhere and also everyone wishes to get the bags.

But these bags are very dangerous to our day to day life. It may cause us cancer. The usage of bags harming the animals also. All of them should realize that we have to limit the usage of plastic bags. We are throwing everywhere after using it. It is the main cause to make our environment to pollute. They can't decompose easily. So that everyone should carry bags when we go outside. If we so that the half of the bags are reduced in usage. We have to use the plastic bags after reusing it.

"Limitation of using plastic bags.
Carry a bag with you everywhere.
Polythene bags were banned".

Hi all,

Of course, we must ban the use of polythene bags, in fact, every polythene made products. These days polythine products are being used to make most of our daily usable products like water bottles, bags, glass, plates, buckets and so and so. Endless lists and just suppose how much poisonous gases are produced during making of all these. Not only in India but polythene use must be banned all over the world. Instead we should use jute and Cotton made bags that will bring opportunity for poor farmers to grow jute and cotton in their land for earnings as these plants don't need so much care for their growth.

If we want to save our upcoming generations from repercussions of polythene products then its very high time to ban this otherwise we will be too late.
