plastic shopping bags contribute to the pollution of air and sea. Some people think they should be banned. Do you agree or disagree ?

Plastic

shopping

bags

have been long recognised as one of the causes of air and water pollution. Some individuals argue that they should be banned. I firmly agree with the prohibition of

plastic

bags

and think that there should be alternatives to replace them.

To begin

with, rubber-made

bags

are accounted for harming our environment. In fact, a

amount of those products are thrown into rivers and seas.

This

phenomenon can be seen in the rivers in Jakarta, in which plastics are the ones responsible for producing hazardous stuff in the seawater. Other than that, Jakarta has

also

been named as the second largest city which produces synthetic trash in the world.

This

instance shows the impact

on our surroundings. As it is evident that

bags

are polluting the ecosystem, banning should be executed, and measures should be taken.

First,

limiting the use of plastics can be done by promoting some substitutions,

such

as

bags

made of fibre or other reusable carriages.

Second,

stores and malls should not provide their customers with any

plastic

bags

. McDonald's in Indonesia,

for example

, no longer uses

plastic

bags

to wrap their food,

otherwise

, they use paper

instead

.

In other words

, the government should set a policy and every person has a responsibility to enable

this

movement.

To sum up

, people believe that

plastic

bags

are pollutants.

Subsequently

, they should not be used for shopping anymore.

Therefore

, I suggest that those who still utilise

plastic

bags

should start limiting their use of them and migrate to environmentally friendly equipment.
