Non disposable and recycling of plastic should be banned by the Government using strict punishment or high penalty.

 I endorse Mr.Dhingra comments, that is real facts 

MR. SHIBAJI,

WHERE TO THROW THAT PLASTIC?

WHAT IS THE SOLUTION WITH YOU IF RECYCLING OF PLASTIC IS BANNED?

DO YOU WANT THAT THE WORLD SHOULD BECOME THE BIGGEST DUMP OF WASTED PLASTIC IN THE SHAPE OF A BY-PRODUCT OF PETROLEUM, WHILE YOU WON'T LIKE TO STOP USAGE OF PETROL & DIESEL FOR YOUR CARS MOTORCYCLES, & SCOOTERS AND UNTIMATELY PRODUCTION OF PETRO PRODUCTS WOULD NOT BE STOPPED?

Everybody is talking about "carry bags" only. What to say on:Non–recyclable plastic consumer items such as- some food storage containers, dishware, vinyl, disposable diapers, toys, Formica™, fiberglass, foam materials, and plastics attached to other materials such as kitchenware or auto parts etc.

May be a technology coming up tomorrow to recycle them. Who knows it?.

Dear Vinod,

Plastic will not become a giant problem within 20-30 years by not banning, BUT will definitely become a giant problem within the next 5 years, if banned, as plastic will not remain by-product, but be waste of petroleum products, as production of petrol, diesel will have to be increased by ever increasing demand of cars trucks, busses, motorcycles, other industries run by petroleum, etc., and expansion of air travels in the near future. The companies and Governments would not be able to find place to dump that waste except by shrinking people's housing and agricultural lands every day to increase more and more dumps for plastic, the by-product of petroleum.

By banning plastic you won't be able to get mineral water in plastic bottles, your children would not be fed milk through plastic bottles, your children would not be able to get huge lot of plastic toys, you will not be able to use buckets for drinking water, buckets, mugs and tubs for your bathrooms, plastic pipes for supply of drinking water and those used in sewage disposal. Even liquid medicines you are getting in plastic bottles. These are just a few examples. Better, you try to see your own household where you are using plastic goods. You would find several other articles of households and childdren toys made of plastics. Since the plastic is not banned, so you are getting such like facilities, otherwise you would be compelled to keep water for drinking and use in kitchens in the same old fashioned rusty iron buckets.

THE QUESTION ARISES, WHO HAS COMPELLED YOU TO BUY SUCH THINGS FOR YOUR HOUSEHOLD? IF YOU ARE SO AGAINST PLASTIC, WHY DON'T YOU BAN THE PURCHASE OF SUCH PLASTIC GOODS BY YOURSELF FOR YOUR OWN HOUSE FIRST?

BOTH ARE  INSEPARABLE

OKAY SIR, ACCEPTED, FIRST PETROL HAS TO BE BANNED, THEN WE CAN STOP THE PRODUCTION OF PLASTIC, SINCE PETROL IS THE SOURCE TO PRODUCE PLASTIC.

WHY DIDN'T THE SO-CALLED SCIENTIST THINK OF ITS DEMERITS WHILE MAKING PLASTIC?   

TODAY WE ARE AT LOGGERHEADS BECAUSE OF SOMEBODY ELSE's MISTAKE.  

THE FUTURE OF THE ENTIRE WORLD IS AT STAKE.  NOW WHERE TO FIND THE SOLUTION?  

ONE DAY THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE WILL BE DESTROYED, BECAUSE A RICH MAN DOES NOT WANT TO GET OUT OF HIS CAR.


THUS, THE DEBATE IS QUITE MEANINGLESS.


THANK YOU SIR,

YOU AGAIN ENLIGHTENED ME!!

Sorry Ms. Padmaja Baskar,

Banning of non-recyclable plastics is really, impossible at this stage. Because, it's use has penetrated so deep that it is really difficult to work without it, particularly in packaging & forwarding industry, containers for transportation etc.

Firstly, the Consumers will be disappointed. Secondly, the Manufacturing Industries that invested in millions will uprise to it.

Recent option that a project undertook to use plastic waste in Road construction may be explored further in Highway constructions.

As far as, the generation & disposal of waste is concerned, citizen needs to improve the method of waste disposal in this regard. It starts from Individual to Municipal agencies. The existing system for Plastic waste management system is to be strengthened & more practical in applications.

As a Consumer, one needs to dispose it properly i.e degradable into degradable; non-degradable into non-degradable; in non-degradable also to recyclable & non-recyclable. This helps civic admin to take of it as the regulation says.

As a manufacture, one needs to set points for collection of plastic wastes & the methods mentioned is followed at the time of issuance of license.

As a Civic admin, one need to intensify the plastic waste collection contractors through various means (Bidded, Voluntary, Manufacturers). Collected wastes are appropriately segregated for further disposal.

We need to improve the existing system more useful & powerful so that no one is at loss.
