Polythene bags must be banned!

Polythene bags must be banned. It is an hazard to the environment. It not only pollutes the environment but also effects our health. Using polythene bags not only causes air, water and soil pollution but also affects living beings a lot directly or indirectly. It affects stray animals who eat these polythene bags lying on the road. When it is burned it causes air pollution which leads to breathing problems and many more. Polythene can't be easily decayed and hence it remains in the environment for long time and affects the health of living beings. Thus polythene bags must be banned and paper bags must be used instead.

Hi Everyone.

Polythene bags should be banned permanently.
As it causes air, soil and water pollution.
Which effects living organisms of the earth.
The way is found to recycle the polythene bag. But the process is costlier and only some plastic are eligible for recycling.

Finally, prevention is better than cure.

So polythene bags must be banned.

Hi, everyone, Yes polythene bag should be banned for every time.

We know that polythene is a recyclable waste it is a very dangerous to our society, our health, our atmosphere etc,

Because it causes pollution and due to pollution many diseases are caused by pollution from polythene such disease is skin cancer etc. And our animals are also affect by polythene due to the eating it.

Hi everyone.

Yes, polythene bags must be banned. It creates pollution as polythene is not bio-degradable. Polythene is affecting climate it creates soil, air water pollution. Banning polythene bags will be a small step to cure the problem of pollution. If we want our future generation to be healthy we have to take this step. Instead of using plastics bags we should use reusable bags.

According to me, polythene bags should be banned and the reason for that is it is non-degradable and causes pollution. The government of India should start providing bags that are degradable and causes less pollution. People should be made aware of the effects of using polythene through various mediums.

Like many others, I also used to use plastic bags daily but now after knowing its disadvantages I have stopped using them and switched to Jute bags for my grocery shopping. Jute bags are sturdy, reusable and washable too. I also always ensure to keep a folding cloth bag in my car as it can be used at times when you have no intention of shopping but end up buying stuff. Also due to my office, I get time only on weekends to do my grocery shopping so I got this mac cart folding shopping trolley from Amazon. Now, I don't need to lift those heavy bags too.

Hi, I am Adnan.

I am little bit confused it should be banned or not because it is very useful all the product of eating, carrying are packed in plastic bags but it also very harmful for our nature it I think in my suggestion our government needs to make a strict law for this bags 4R rule is good for this plastic bags (reduce, reuse, recycle, recover). I think it will work. Thats all my suggestion. Thank You.

In my opinion, polyethene bags should be banned as it is a hazard to the environment. Effects on the environment are enumerated:

1. Non-biodegradable.
2. Manufacture causes pollution.
3. Recycling of polyethene involves more cost. i.e loss to an organization involved in recycling.
4. Consumed by stray animals nearby society, causing dangerous disease like cancer (mostly cow's, dogs who are not owned by people are the victims).

Yes, the polybags must be banned. This sentence is uttered by me also in any social gatherings or when we start discussing the concern of environmental protection. But when I went to the market without carrying any handbag which is not made of polythene then I also ask the shopkeeper to provide me that dangerous thing, at that time I don't think about the matter of polythene pollution, at that time what I think is that how I should carry my items easily. So I want to say that this is kind of initiative every one of us should take.

Thank you.

In my opinion, the polythene bags should not be banned.

As we all know that plastics bags are very easy to use, more strength than paper bags or anything.

I know, it's very harmful for air, soil, water and also for animal but we have no option.

But we can reuse these bags much time. The government should make a system like if you sell the useless plastic to the government they will pay you for this.

Thank you.
