  Plastic bags are everywhere in our environment When we go to purchase our groceries we use plastic bags because they are convenient In fact in our modern lives it has become part of us However the convenience of these plastic bags come at a very high cost to the environment and negatively affects human health Several cities globally have begun banning the use of plastic bags while some have enforced restricted laws against the use of plastic bags because of the negative effects of the use of their usageBesides the use of plastic bags is considered as one of the great issuesthat humans are facing in their contemporary life Cities such as China have banned the use of plastics Bangladesh and India has only banned the use and sale of polythene bags which basically have thickness of less than micronsPOINTSPlastic bags do not only pollute our water but also our land Plastic bags are usually lightweight and as such they can travel very long distances by either water or wind Wind blows these plastic bags and trashes a whole area These litters gets caught up in between trees fences and floats in water bodies thus moving to the worlds oceansThe plastic bags are made from nonrenewable sources and on this account highly contribute to climate change Most of plastic is made of polypropylene which is a material manufactured from petroleum and natural gas All of the materials are nonrenewable fossil fuelbased materials and through their extraction and even production greenhouse gases are created which further contribute to global climate changeA lot of energy is used in producing these bags The total amount of energy required to drive a car for one kilometre or miles is the equivalent energy required to produce nine plastic bags It is not rational that these nonrenewable resources are used to make plastic bags when the typical useful life of each and every plastic bag is around minutesPlastic bags do not degrade In truth petroleum based plastic bags never degrade Instead of the plastic degrading it is broken down into small tiny pieces which are swept down and end up in the oceans which are then consumed by wildlife Currently there are approximately plastic fragments floating within every square mile of the globes oceansPlastic bags are harmful to wildlife and marine life Birds animals and marine life such as sea turtles and fish often mistake the plastic bag and other plastic materials for food and consume them What happens once they consume these plastic materials is that their digestive system gets congested leading to the development of health infections and death when there is suffocation The animals may also become easily entangled inside the plasticPlastic bags are harmful to human health There are some chemicals from the plastic bags which can disrupt the normal functioning of hormones in the body Most plastic fragments in the oceans like plastic bags have some pollutants such as PCBs polychlorinated biphenyl together with PAHs Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons which are hormone disrupting Once the marine animals consume these chemicals they move through the food web then later into the humans who consume fish together with other marine animals The chemical materials bioaccumulates in the sea animals and fish system as they are exposed to them in the ocean waters When the humans prepare them they consume all these chemicals affecting their healths They could develop cancers or other serious conditionsPlastic bags are expensive and hard to clean or remove from the environment The amount of plastic bag cleanup is around cents per bag thus in average the taxpayers end up paying around each year just on plastic bag waste These plastic bags also cost cents each Thus the plastic considered free is not free after all Individuals pay a lot to purchase them and even for reusing them For this reason plastics should simply be bannedPlastic bags have external costs Several costs are attributed to the production of plastic bags A
