Use alternate energy, reduce plastics
The usage of plastic has been increasing rapidly from day to day. Most of the individuals are using the plastic products regularly in every part of their life. For example, the plastic covers, plastic chairs, plastic bottles, plastic plates, plastic toys and most of the things which we see in our daily lives are made up of plastic. We have been using it in some or the other form daily. But have you ever thought of the fact that plastic is non-recyclable? However, certain things like pop bags and bottles can be recycled, where the plastic furniture cannot be reprocessed.
Effects of Plastic: Plastic contains some harmful ingredients in it. Thus, plastic when used regularly can cause some health problems. You need also remember the fact that plastic of all the categories is not bio-degradable. In fact it takes some centuries together to break-down. So, the less plastic you use in your home, the better environment you can give to your future generations. This will not only benefit the future generations, but also for you. Plastic when burned along with garbage will cause severe air pollution too.

You can use the either cotton carry bags or a carry bag made up of any cloth. Single changes in your life style make our whole environment pollution free. Many shopping malls have now stopped using the plastic carry bags, and bought the fabric bags into usage. You might think that plastic is cheap when compared to the fabric products. But, you can use the fabric bags by cleaning it any number of times.
Make sure that you do not allow your kids to play with Plastic toys as they cause several skin diseases too. Besides, children usually put the toys in their mouth and this may lead to digestive problems.
