A product created by human with synthetic organic polymer is plastic. Plastic is a part of human living. It has attached deeply with the daily use of life activities. It’s use is everywhere in the world in almost every field of life. Plastic has a variety of forms used in variety of activities whether industrial, farming, commercial markets, packaging, for carrying of articles, and various products for direct use of people and for currency printing. The use of plastic is in a very wide field everywhere. we can say that plastic is a basic useful product of human activity. Without plastic it seems how industries using plastic for packaging would survive without its manufacturing. It would be difficult for production houses go smoothly without thinking of plastic use for their products packaging. Not only in packaging, plastic is a big part in manufacturing business of various articles life toys, vehicles parts, engineering buildups, kitchen instruments, tools, furniture, decorative ornaments, and various thousands of products which are used in nearby every field of professional and unprofessional usage of life.  Plastic business in itself is a big scale profitable business which will last for long.  Products of daily need like milk, biscuits, toothpaste, toothbrush, kitchen use products, vegetables, clothes, shoes, cosmetics, shampoos, deodorants, perfumes, toys, food products and many things more, are packed in or made of plastic. Plastic seems to be much safe and nutrients preserving for long.

What is plastic? Any synthetic or semisynthetic organic polymer is plastic. Most industrial products are made from petrochemicals. Plastic is the most durable industrial product which lasts for long. The products packed in plastics get durability assurance for long. The preservation of food products in plastic are for safety and long time. In the mid of 1800’s , humans started creating synthetic polymers or artificial polymers. Synthetic polymers have plastic properties.  The use of other materials like metals, stones, bones, horns, fangs were not easy to obtain and easy to process. Therefore, scientists were searching for alternative materials that could be lightweight, strong, durable, mass-produced, inexpensive, easily approachable, not entirely dependent on natural resources. When synthetic polymers, later known as plastics, discovered and developed, the plastic revolution broke in the industrial world.

The benefits of plastic are many and its use is in abundance in the world. The maximum use of plastic has grown a danger of natural disbalance in the nature. The plastic once used is thrown in the garbage and in the river or sea as used by people after using food and consuming products. The plastic as it is long lasting and synthetic, it doesn’t dissolve in water and its constant capacity makes it non diminishing for a very long period of time, even for ever. This quality proves most dangerous for nature. The single used plastics are thrown in the garbage and eaten by stray animals and cattles searching for food. People sometimes throw left food in plastic polythenes which animals are not able to open and being hungry they eat with the polythenes. Such plastics in their stomach become cause of their death. They also whine with severe pain and after treatment by NGO’s doctors, huge amount of polythenes are found inside their stomach. This is a critical situation for the stray creatures who depend on thrown foods.  Same is with the aquatic life. people also throw litter made of plastic like snacks rappers, cold drink cans, water bottles etc. in the rivers which mixes up with water and aquatic life suffers a lot.

Scientists also have discovered that water or food consumed in plastic bottles and utensils cause critical illness like cancer. The invention of plastic in the beginning rolled a great revolution in the world but later it produced dangerous matters for the nature. Without plastic industrial output would be in danger as its packaging and preservation of products system would be a new matter of study. But what would be about nature care. Nature has given humans everything. Its humans responsibility to protect and preserve it. If humans creations disturb nature, then it should be abolished and its alternate should be brought out as soon as possible. Government in our country has tried to ban plastic but in vain. It is still in prevalence indiscriminately. People’s awareness would impose ban on it. Although many social activists are performing their roles to aware the mass against use of single use of plastic, then also it should be in habit of avoiding its use. Government and social activists are introducing jute bags as an alternate to polythenes and it has been accepted by the people. Still more initiatives have to be taken in order to finish the use of single use of plastics. The poor creatures as stray animals and cattles and water life are humans responsibility and their safe life should be a kind target. Left food should not be thrown in polythenes as it is also not good to throw food. It is better to keep it safe somewhere at a safe place so that stray animals may eat it safely. This would be a kind job of feeding poor hungry animals and food would also be in use. The initiatives taken by government and social activists should be praised and followed by all. The safety of nature should be the priority and the environment will also be safe and pleasing. So, the ban on plastic is a necessary and needful step and people all together should come shoulder to shoulder against use of plastic. 

Scientists are already working on its alternative material. It must be a habit of thinking without plastic. What people can do should do. What governments can do should do. Its all our responsibility for nature and life. Let the plastic not intrude on life’s safe journey. The life tone should tune clean and smooth. Let the nature move in its own way. Let the creatures live their whole life without human interfere. All should take care of nature and all’s life.
