It is based on how we are polluting the environment with so much of plastic and it causes many types of pollution. It is the PowerPoint Presentation. So you all can make the best PowerPoint Presentation by my ideas. It is my Believe
2. INTRODUCTION
Plastic is the general common term for a
wide range of synthetic or semi synthetic
organic solid materials suitable for the
manufacture of industrial products. Plastics
are typically polymers of high molecular
weight, and may contain other substances to
improve performance and/or reduce costs.
Plastic is one of the few new chemical
materials which pose environmental
problem. Polyethylene, Polystyrene,
Polyvinyl chloride is largely used in the
manufacture of plastics.

5. ADVERSEEFFECTSOF PLASTICS
ONOUR ENVIRONMENT
1) Plastic pollute beaches & oceans
Garbage has been discarded into the oceans for as
long as humans have sailed the seven seas or lived
on seashore or near waterways flowing into the sea.
Since the 1940, plastic use has increased
dramatically, resulting in a huge quantity of nearly
indestructible, lightweight material floating in the
oceans and eventually deposited on beaches
worldwide.
6. 2) Plastics bags litter the
landscape
Once they are used, most plastic bags go into landfill,
or rubbish tips. Each year more and more plastic
bags are ending up littering the environment. Once
they become litter, plastic bags find their way into
our waterways, parks, beaches, and streets.And if
they are burned, they infuse the air with toxic
fumes.
7. 3) Plasticbagskillanimals
About 100,000 animals such as dolphins, turtles etc.
are killed every year due to plastic bags. Many
animals ingest plastic bags, mistaking them for
food, and therefore die. And worse is when the
ingested plastic bag remains intact even after the
death and decomposition of the animal.Thus, it lies
around in the landscape where another victim may
ingest it.
8. 4)Plasticbagsarenon-biodegradable
One of the worst environment effects of plastic bags
is that they are non-biodegradable.The
decomposition of plastic bags takes about 100
years.
9. ADVERSEEFFECTOF PLASTICON
HUMANBEINGS
Plastic plays the villain right from the stage of its
production.The major chemicals that go into
the making of plastic are highly toxic and pose
serious threat to living beings of all species on
earth.
Some of the constituents of plastic such as
benzene are known to cause cancer. Plastics
resins themselves are flammable and have
contributed considerably to several accidents
worldwide.
10. Once plastic is produced, the harm is done once and
for all. Plastic defies any kind of attempt at disposal
be it through recycling, burning, or land filling.
When you recycle a hazard, you create a hazard.
Recycling of plastic is associated with skin and
respiratory problems, resulting from exposure to
and inhalation of toxic fumes, especially
hydrocarbons and residues released during the
process.
11. MEASURES
1. Single-use plastic bags have become such a
ubiquitous way of life that it seems as if we simply
cannot do without them. However, we can start
reducing their use in small ways.
2. A cloth bag can make a good substitute for holding
the purchased materials.You can keep the bag
with the basket, and then put your purchases into
it instead of using plastic bag.
12. 3. Recycling the plastic bags is an another good idea.
These can come into use for various purposes, like
holding our garbage, instead of purchasing new
ones.
4. While government may be working out ways to
lessen the impact of plastic bags on the
environment, however, each of us should take
some of the responsibilities for this kind of
problem, which ultimately harm us.
