On 23 March 2018, the state government of Maharashtra declared an extensive ban on plastic disposable items, taking the plastic problem head on.
As promised the State Govt of Maharashtra has declared a ban on plastic carry bags and several other single use disposable items made of non biodegradable materials such as plastic, polystyrene and multi layered materials.
Our cloth bags are traveling to other countries to convince people about the need to stop using plastic…
Many of us have become dependent on the convenience of using a film of thin plastic to cover our leftovers or to wrap our sandwiches in – known as Saran wrap, plastic clingfilm, or plastic wraps – this thin sheet of plastic is yet another product that was designed without considering the consequences it would have on our health as well as on the environment.
The Government of Maharashtra has promised to ban plastic bags by Gudi Padwa which falls on 18 March 2018. The last time they made us this promise was in 2010 and not much changed after this.
As the debates around the plastic bag ban continue, there are many issues that we would like to share and discuss together. We would like to invite you to come to the fourth citizens meeting on the subject.
