    INTRODUCTION The poly bags are manufactured from polyethylene thus

    making them biodegradable when exposed to direct oxygenand UV light. For this reason, stabilizing chemicals may beadded during the manufacturing process to prevent them

    from breakage. Though this renders your imported polybags stable to use for industrial purposes, it may affecthow the polyethylene content could be broken down fordisposal later on. We might also be hesitant to use importedpoly bags for food if they have stabilizing chemicals addedto them to prevent degradation

    CAUSES OF POLYBAGS A Polythene bag can even destroy our

    entire environment..

    Plastics may remain in the stomachs,blocking digestion and possibly causingstarvation..

    POLLUTION EFFECTS

    OF POLYBAGS Every once in a while the government here passes

    out an order banning shop keepers from providingplastic bags to customers for carrying theirpurchases, with little lasting effect. Plastic bagsare very popular with both retailers as well asconsumers because they are cheap, strong,lightweight, functional, as well as a hygienic meansof carrying food as well as other goods. Eventhough they are one of the modern conveniences

    that we seem to be unable to do without, they areresponsible for causing pollution, killing wildlife,and using up the precious resources of the earth.

    CONCLUSION By refusing to use plastic bags, you can make a huge difference to thepollution problem. Remember that each person uses about 83 bags a year.If there are four people in your family, that's 332 plastic bags less everyyear.

    That's 332 bags less that will: Release toxins into the ground water from landfill sites Stay in the environment for hundreds of years while they break down Get into the food chain through animals that ingest small particles of

    plastic Waste energy during the manufacturing process Kill any of the estimated 100,000 marine animals that die each year of

    plastic pollution These are all-important factors that have a profound affect on our

    environment and the creatures we share our planet with.
