Conclusion• Disposable tableware, bags, packaging, bottles, and various
containers are in daily usage today.
• All of them harm the environment.
• Recycling, incineration, and discarding are different types of disposal.
• Only 5% is recycled.
• Reduce production and use of plastic is the best solution
• Popularization of other alternatives
• Preventing environmental disaster
