The use and production of polybags do a great deal of harm to our environment and drain gage system, air, water and soil. In our country, thousands of pieces of polythene's are being used everyday. This huge amount of polythene is neither being re- used nor being decomposed by natural way. Most of the bags are just thrown out after its first use. They find their way into the drains. Then the polybags block our drainage system, barricade regular flow of water, obstruct the rainwater flowing into the drains etc. As a result low- lying areas in the cities frequently go under water. Flood occurs every now and then. Whenever, these polybags go inside the cultivable land, it loses fertility and crops do not grow in such lands.
Polybags remain unchanged like a curtain through which nothing can pass. So the land can not be irrigated. Polybags are burnt to get rid of its direct effect but some emitting from polyfire pollutes our air in a massive way. Such pollution is very harmful for human health. Because of huge use of polythene our traditional jute and cloth bags have lost their market. They are now out of use. Jute and cloth bags can be used several times whereas polybags are used only once. So polybags are waste of money. So government should ban the use and production of polybags making law.
