Plastic bags, plastic bottles and plastic packaging are bad for the environment. What damage does plastic do to the environment? What can be done by governments and individuals to solve this problem?

Nowadays, our mother earth is really in danger due to the
pollution
produced by
plastic
bags, bottles and
plastic
packaging. In
this
essay, the actions how to solve it will be mentioned and what can be done to reduce its effect of it on our environment will be discussed.
Firstly
,
plastic
products are usually thrown away under the ground, which that it is able to cause ground
pollution
, and the soil becomes poor.
This
is one of the reasons why trees and plants do not grow easily in
this
generation as they used to fifty years ago.
Secondly
, the production of
plastic
causes air
pollution
. Factories that produce
plastic
bags, packaging, and other
plastic
products emit exhaust fumes into our atmosphere. All the facts mentioned can prove that
plastic
pollution
is one of the leading roles in the list of environmental problems. Proper awareness about the drawbacks of
this
plastic
and limiting its use is the most effective way.
For example
, supermarkets, are not allowed to issue
plastic
bags to their customer. They will need to use the eco-bag when going shopping or else they will bring their groceries with their bare hands.
As a result
, the production of
this
will be reduced and the factories will change them to eco-bag, which are, produced from natural products.
Moreover
, awareness of the possible negative causes of
this
problem will be posted and discussed on social media. The governments,
also
, can conduct a public campaign. On
this
, they will be aware and understand the importance of reducing using of
plastic
and the benefits of
this
in our environment. In conclusion, I would like to say that, nowadays, people appear to be the main reason for environmental problems. Lack of awareness about the causes of these problems increases the risk of
further
Earth life. Understanding the consequences of that
pollution
and limiting the use of plastics is the solution.
