She says that people are not well aware
When we were in school, we were all taught from the very beginning of our
environmental studies classes that consumption of plastic is not good for nature
but we still continue to do it. The environmental crisis is worsening by the day
as we keep on using single-use plastic products. But, what if we knew how to use
these plastics more effectively and productively?In a unique turn of events,
India has decided to take a U-turn on its plan of banning single-use plastics
completely. As a result, the national capital on October 2 will not be imposing
the ban either. Instead, the government plans to enforce the existing rules
against storing, manufacturing and using single-use plastic products such as
polythene bags more strictly and try to educate people about the sensible
plastic usage through campaigns. Supporting the move Shashank Singh, a Delhiite
says that small plastic bags are very helpful for buying small items as these
are used to store the items easily and every time one goes to a shop it is
almost impossible for them to remember to carry cloth bags. He says, "I have
seen many street vendors packing food for their customers in these small bags as
they can’t afford to buy cloth-based bags. So these small items are actually
doing a great job for many people, yes the impact of using them is not good but
if we ban them immediately it might create problems for a lot of people by
becoming a sudden disruption."Dipali Sharma, another city resident thinks that
the idea of educating people on the bad effects of plastic usage is definitely
the first step to take.
She says that people are not well aware of the fact why
plastic is not good for us and further explains, "Drinking water in a plastic
bottle is not really good for our body so we should start avoiding plastic
bottles at home and drink water in a glass bottle instead. Also, the ban of
every such item is important as they are use and throw materials and if these
won’t be banned people will continue using them."Whereas Palak Singh comments
that the use of plastic might not be the best option but some items that Indians
buy on a daily basis requires these plastics such as milk and says, "Everyone
cannot afford a China Automotive
Interior Injection Plastic Part Molding tetra pack based milk carton as the
price is double as compared to the normal milk packet we buy. We should first
think of new ways to eliminate plastic from daily use which is affordable."The
Delhi urban development department is already ready to launch a massive campaign
in the capital to discourage people from using plastic products.
