All you need to know about plastic and the reason for the Plastic ban in Vizag



Single-Use Plastics Ban will be implemented from 5 June 2022. This topic is creating a lot of buzz in Visakhapatnam.

Here is a small real story by an environmentalist, 

In 2008, a friend of mine who is knowledgeable on matters concerning plastics and I went down to a multi-consumer product retailer near our home and took a look at all the products on display.

I took each pack off the shelf in my hand and asked him, "what material is this pack made of?". He was wonderfully patient and educated me on the packaging of every product. 


I made careful notes and wrote at that time. Much of the report will have less relevance now, but the table I made with the information remains valid. Those who wish to have a ready reckoner of what plastics are used for may find the helpful table.  

So the plastic ban is a positive sign and will make all Vizagities conscious about Environment. It's our duty to say no to plastic and go eco-friendly.
