Question

What is the best method to avoid pollution by using plastic bags?

• A. Bury the plastic bags in the soil
• B. Use biodegradable plastic bags
• C. Throw the plastic bags into the river
• D. Burn the plastic bags in a rubbish dump

Answer 1

The correct option is B Use biodegradable plastic bags

The plastics are the non-biodegradable wastes because they are synthetic polymers which cannot be acted upon by the microbes. The plastics should not be dumped in the soil, river or rubbish dump. The biodegradable plastics should be used which will reduce the pollution and the problems created by the use of plastics.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
