plastic

is affecting the ecosystem.When

plastic

is not decomposed for years,

then

it is thrown into water bodies like oceans and rivers where they are ingested by marine life which, ultimately leads to their death.Recent research has provided evidence that

plastic

ingestion by fishes is found as a cause of death.After analysing

this

it can be interpreted that the earth is

also

losing its biodiversity. The

second

point worth mentioning is that

plastic

reduces the fertility of the

soil

which will, unfortunately, reduce food production.When

plastic

is thrown on the ground and it is non-biodegradable waste, so it does not get degraded by the bacterias in the

soil

and remain in the

soil

forever.

This

reduces the fertility of the

soil

by producing various chemicals in the

soil

and affecting the flora and fauna of the

soil

.Due to which agriculture is suffering and the amount harvested is reduced.

Moreover

, there are many biodegradable substitutes of

plastic

that can be used for shopping. In conclusion, it is vital to conserve natural resources and for ,

this

it is important that harmful substances like

plastic

should be kept away from them.Government should use qualitative as well as quantitative approach to tackle

this

problem and reduce pollution caused by

plastic

bags.
