Solution

One time use plastics are use and throw plastic like plastic carry bags, cups, plates, straws, water pouches, cutlery and plastic sheets used for food wrapping.

These items take a few seconds to be made in a factory and are used for a short duration. Once they are thrown away, they stay in our environment for over 1,000 years causing plastic pollution for future generations.
