In many countries, plastic shopping bags are the main type of rubbish. They cause water pollution and land pollution, so they should be banned. To what extent do you agree?
Plastic, in the forms of shopping bags, in general caused a worldwide concern as the major source of polluter that contaminates land and water; therefore, some expert suggest to ban the usages of plastic bags. I somewhat disagree with this idea because a complete ban is rather a draconian solution whereas alternative solutions are readily available.
Undoubtedly, plastic shopping bags being the by-product of plastic which is non-biodegradable, are one of the primary source of land and water pollutions. Firstly, disposal of it into landfills leads to land pollutions because they might spread out from those to nearby human habitats due to natural phenomenon like strong winds, cyclones and floods. Secondly, disposing them into water sources such as Sewages and Canals also causes disruptions of water natural flows by stagnating waste into the flows which ultimately leads to water pollutions. Finally, burning them, which releases toxic substances, for instance, CFCs, carbon-di-oxide and carbon-mono-oxide into the atmosphere, also causes air pollutions. Therefore, banning the production and usages of it is the only solution to tackle land and water contaminations.
Despite this, there are others attractive alternatives instead of total ban of usages and production of plastic shopping bags. Recycling of it rather than disposition to landfills combined with introduction of eco-friendly alternatives such as jutes bags into the markets would be ideal solution to the problems. Besides this, enlightening the masses by raising awareness among them about the usages and importance of environmentally friendly products with regards to environment protection, would be another pragmatic step towards solution of the same. Furthermore, when it comes to combating land and water pollutions, banning and reducing of it alone could not resolve the problems at all because there are other equally important sources of pollutants. For examples, construction, domestic waste, industrial waste and agriculture all contributes to land pollutions, while waste from factories, sewage, power plants, underground coal mines and oil refineries contributes to water pollutions. If government does not undertake practical step to regulate pollution from those sources, it would be foolish to expect something dramatic change to happen in terms of land and water protection by prohibiting plastic bags alone.
In conclusion, although plastic shopping bags admittedly one of the major polluter of land and water worldwide, prohibiting usages and production is rather hard and fast approach to the problem; however, controlling usage and recycling of it combined with promotion of other alternatives would be best solution to the problems.
