The time
is now ripe for our joint action against usage of plastic
carry bags. Do you know?
It takes a thousand years for one plastic bag to
decompose
One billion animals die from ingesting these deadly
plastic bags every year
Yet, world over, close to five hundred billion plastic
bags are produced and consumed each year
Every time we use a plastic carry bag, we contribute to
this problem
On this World Environment Day, each one of us should
resolve to do as much as we can to avoid plastics.
Always carry a small foldable bag with you when you
go out. You never know when you will stop to purchase a
little something on the way
The times when you forget the foldable bag and you
"get" a plastic bag, reuse the plastic bag as many times
as possible
When the time has come to dispose the plastic bags,
dispose it off in a responsible manner. Don't just
"throw" it away.
Be an ambassador of this change.
Take your Small Step today. Help us save our
planet from ourselves.
Here is a video that triggered the plastic ban in
California.
Small Steps is the Social Project that has
been started by Upasana to empower village women while
simultaneously contributing to the environment. Sustainable
development comprises of Economic, Social and Enviornmental
development. The Small Steps project aims to fulfil these
criteria.
