environment

. It is in our hands only to protect the it. In order to do that, the

first

thing where people can help is recycling the waste products. A lot of products that we use can be recycled.

For example

, avoid using single use plastics. Use recyclable boxes. Use steel straws

ones. Another example would be to carry your own recyclable bag for grocery shopping,

saving the money of people which they were spending on these bags every time. Quite significant contributions can be done at the individual level, but it would be great if the government imposes some legal requirements

.

Then

people will be more disciplined to save their

. Government can impose legal requirements.

For instance

bag every time.

This

step has greatly helped in limiting the use of

bags. More

such

steps can be taken in the future.

For example

, imposing fine for houses generating more non recyclable waste per month. It can be measured on the monthly basis, and if it crosses a particular limit, a fine can be imposed.

Such

restrictions can be imposed, but too much of legal restrictions can make people cranky and it will affect their personal harmony. In conclusion, according to me legal requirements can definitely help. But it should be the person's own responsibility, to take care of the

no

legal restrictions would be needed.
