Impact of plastic on our eco system
Plastic has become a very important part of our daily lives. Specifically for urban areas. People are obsessed with it, we regularly use it. It is seen to be every were like market place, shopping mall and also in our own houses too. We never thought off the massive account of harm it can cause on our environment. So, first off, we all know that we always need to avoid Non-biodegradable products as they’re very harmful to nature, but we still can’t able to avoid plastic, which is Non-biodegradable waste too. So, plastic is a very harmful product that can ruin the ecosystem. There are some reasons why it can cause harm to the environment. We all know that plastic is a non-biodegradable material, so it can’t be destroyed or dissolved; it exists forever. As it eternal that’s the massive use of it cause a higher level of pollution in the nature. Plastic affects the whole nature and the world, including human life, wildlife, and aquatic life. Plastic pollution our water, soil and also harms aquatic animals. Every year a large amount plastic is found from wate, it leads to the water become unpurified, so you can imagine how much it can effect on our lives. Plastic is always found on the land, so it affects the fertility rate of the soil and ruins it. Some of the aquatic animals mistakenly swallow it and choke to death. A record showed that most of the dolphins died due to plastic; they accidentally ate it, and it stuck in their mouth, so they weren’t able to eat anything and died due to starvation. So we can see how much plastic harmfully affects the eco system. We should always avoid using plastic and always prefer biodegradable material.

Our world today is facing numerous challenges and one of these greatest challenges is POLLUTION. The earth is contaminated with various human waste and is turning unhealthy day by day. One of the key elements that plays a major role in causing environmental pollution is PLASTIC. This is such an element which each one of us uses in a great amount in our daily lives. Starting from the packaging of food to the disposal of garbage plastic materials are used in every field.
Plastic has a serious impact on the lives of living beings because it is non-biodegradable. It does not mix with soil and causes soil pollution; it stays in the soil for millions of years and even passes on to the water bodies, contaminating them. It eventually chokes various land and water animals. If it is burnt, it releases toxic gase,s hence contributing in air pollution, the released toxic gases are inhaled by all the organisms which leads to various breathing problem.
It’s high time for us to take care of the situation and follow the three R’s: REDUCE, RECYCLE, and REFUSE very strictly. Only if we follow all the measures and adopt various measures to reduce the use of plastic then only it be possible to overcome such a situation.
