The correct option is B

Plastics


Non-biodegradable wastes are the wastes which include old newspaper, broken glass pieces, plastics, etc. Non-biodegradable waste is known as dry waste. Dry wastes can be recycled and can be reused. Non-biodegradable wastes do not decompose by themselves and hence are major pollutants.
