Plastic bags are one of the most commonly used things today. We use them almost every day for various purposes.
There are a number of reasons to say no to plastic bags. We must stop using them to make our environment better and save it from degradation.
The students of CT Public School of grade 6 did a role play depicting the use of paper bags and avoid plastic bags under the able guidance of their Punjabi teacher, Mrs. Kawalpreet Kaur.
Plastic bags are a major source of plastic pollution. As they are non-biodegradable, they take years to decompose. They contribute to a lot of waste which keeps collecting over the years. Plastic takes thousands of years to break down and decompose.
Similarly, it also causes water pollution. As people throw away the bags carelessly on the roads, in the drains and rivers, they enter the water bodies. They are carried away by winds in them and sometimes dumped into water deliberately.Honourable Principal, Mrs. Anuradha Chandel said that this plastic bag goes deep in the water and also hampers the aquatic life and we should avoid using plastic bags to save the environment.
