Abstract
Now-a-day’s plastic has entered every household in different forms and become an integral part of our life. Around 25,950 tonnes of plastic waster India produces every day, out of which 40% has thrown unattended causing the choking of drainage and river systems, littering of the marine ecosystem, soil and water pollution, ingestion by stray animals. Burning in the open atmosphere makes things, even more, worse as it releases toxic gases to the environment. Plastic has been declared as a national menace and our honorable prime minister has taken an initiative to make country plastic free, but it solely depends on the individual effort and contribution.
