Delhi, India’s Capital is the most polluted capital in the
world. Now it has banned disposable plastic. India dumps about 600,000 metric
tons of plastic into the ocean every year. If it continues with the same, the
ocean is expected to hold more plastic than fish by 2050.
Diseases spread because of all the dirt and the garbage
around. Everyone gets sick here. People always suffer from cold and fever. A
Delhi Residence – Ritu Devi says, sometimes this hurts, and sometimes that
hurts. We suffer because of all this smoke and pollution.
The ban was partly in response to illegal plastic burning.
The law includes a $150 fine for vendors who dump trash in public places. The
move is part of Delhi’s effort to reduce pollution. The city banned plastic
bags in 2012, and took a million cars off the congested roads in 2016.
The Indian government and the public are not taking this as
a serious issue. The city produces more garbage as this is one of top ten dirtiest
cities around the globe.
The problem in India is simply put too many people. Uncontrollable
population is one of the main causes of pollution and people’s literacy level
and awareness is also a big problem which is increasing huge pollution in the
country which adds a lot in overall world’s pollution. Too many people make
everything harder on every aspect of life and the garbage will increase with
every child that is brought into this world.
