Plastic bags create which kinds of problems?

Open in App
Solution

Dear student

Plastic bags are non biodegradable. this means such substance does not degrade naturally in environment and thus creates pollution.
Thus bags made of plastic if disposed off will not be broken down by soil micro-organism and will persist in environment for long time.
Moreover if animals like cows would eat garbage including those plastic bags, then plastic will choke their lung as a result cows will die.
So we should avoid making use of plastic bag.
Alternative- we can use cloth bags which are reusable.
