Solution

Dear Student
The harmful effects of using plastic are as follows:
Plastic is a non biodegradable substance. It causes land pollution and water pollution.
Burning of plastic also causes air pollution.
Plastic bags when consumed along with food by animals, cause harm to their life.
Plastic bags can cause blocking in sewage line.

Hence, the government has banned the use of single use plastic so as to minimise the harmful effects of plastic.
