Single use plastics pose significant danger to environment and human health. My few suggestions for elimination are as follows:-
1. Strict enforcement of ban on single use plastics.
2. Encourage recyclable products to be used.
3. In case of unava circumstances, single use plastics should be converted to multi use.
4. Masses should be educated about the dangers that it's use causes to the environment.

Continuous use of plastics is danger to the natural ecosystem. We must join hands to use biodegradable products and say no to plastic. Per day we are adding tons of plastic to the mother earth. we can surely minimize the use of plastics if we recognize how harmful it is. We can use jute bags. We can apply home base methods and things.

Everyone talks about the growing menace and hazards of polythene even Govt. One or the other day circulates orders regarding ban of polythene but it is not that easy to eradicate this menace with just an order or few campaigns.Govt says support of people is much needed yes it is but to remove polythene from market is actually a real
challenge that govt needs to tackle with.Untill and unless the factories are not sealed where this poisonous thing is maufactured nothing and no one can stop it..

To save our environment it is highly imperative to curb the uncontrolled usage of single use plastic. The sloganeering and ineffective public awareness programs are not going to yield desired results. Only way out is to stop and ban production of this stuff. If not available, the material won't be used.

Single use plastic is one of the most prevalent causes of pollution including environmental as well as water pollution. It has devastating impact on oceans, sea animals and hydrophytes. Therefore, ban on single use plastic is very important. Governments in many countries including India have started campaign to stop using single use plastic and use environment friendly carry bags.
We produce millions of tons of single use plastic every year, most of which cannot be recycled.
