Solution

We should avoid using plastic bags for the following reasons.
1. Plastic bags choke the drains and cause wastewater to overflow.
2. If stray animals eat plastic bags, they may choke to death.
3. Recycled plastic bags contain toxic chemicals. So, the use of recycled plastic bags to keep food items is harmful to health.
4. The burning of plastics produces harmful gases and a foul smell.
