 opinion. there are several reasons why I believe that
plastic
bags
 have a bad environmental impact.
first,
they are a significant source of pollution. since
plastic
bags
 are not environmentally friendly and they are non-biodegradable goods, they are damaging the environment .

 to environmentally friendly views. Despite the above arguments, some people believe that we cannot forbid the use of

bags
 and that governments should recycle and reuse them. But, unfortunately, a vast number of people are oblivious to the consequences of these materials. because the recovery rate of
plastic
 is very low and it is impossible to reuse
due to
 its low melting point which slows down recycling. In conclusion, in order to protect the environment, people should be encouraged to purchase environmentally friendly products and the government should enforce laws to ban using non-biodegradable packaging because they threaten our
life
, wildlife

, and marine
life
