Plastic bags

Do you know that plastic bags made from PVC, glossy and stylish in their attire, are almost killing us? Thus, they are turning our lives sour.

We do not realise it now, but in the near future it will definitely ruin our lives and therefore should certainly not be used. We can pre-conceive its harmful effects all ready. When thrown away carelessly by many of us. It leads to air and water pollution. When burnt, polythene bags release harmful and toxic gases, which cause asthma and tuberculosis. If swallowed by cattle, they can lead to their death.

We, the children, who are the future generation, will have to make our school our country and the world a better place. Let us make some use of the cyber world and mail at least two people and make them aware about the harmful effects of plastic.
