decays after ingesting plastic, the plastic is then freed back into the marine environment to
carry on killing other wildlife.
7. PLASTICS BAG ARE NON BIO-DEGRADABLE
And One Of the worst environment Effects of plastics

10. MEASURES
1- Single-use plastics, or disposable plastics, are used only
once before they are thrown away or recycled. ...
Although plastic will not biodegrade (decompose into natural
substance like soil,) it will degrade (break down) into tiny particles
after many years.
2- India generates close to 26,000 tonnes of plastic a day,
according to a CPCB estimate from 2012. Worse, a little over
10,000 tonnes a day of plastic waste remains uncollected. ... At
less than 11 kg, India's per capita plastic consumption is nearly
a tenth of the US, at 109 kg.
