Sub: Bad Effect of plastic carry Bags on the environment.
Sir,
I Shall be highly obliged if you kindly allow me to express my thoughts through the columns of your esteemed daily. My concern about the Bad Effect of plastic carry Bags on the environment.
It is well known that plastic is non biodegradable and cannot be recycled. These bags chock the sewage system that causes water logging not only during monsoon but throughout the years in some areas. Piled used plastics turns the soil toxic. Added to this, it hinders the rain water from seeping into underground to increase the water table. The government, abiding by the order of supreme court, has banned the use of plastic carry bags under specific units of thickness. But the commoners hardly pay any attention to these orders.
The need of the time is a frequent awareness programme to make the people conscious of the hazards lying before us. It is also important to make the people compelled to use jute or cotton bags instead of the plastic carry bags by strict implementation of the rule. Every conscious citizen should come forward to make the regulations fruitful and effective for the future generation, otherwise we will give our coming generation a bleak and unsafe future.
Thanking You Yours faithfully
