We are using the plastic bags for many task, especially when bringing things and clothes within the place of the bag, and to carry groceries from the shop and the business unit out to our homes and organizations. And sometimes, things are bought for having the places where we are, also visited festivals and camps many places, and even more usages are for the plastic bag, and we can just use our fantasy to find where we are using it and why.

Plastic bags were invented to save the planet, according to the son of Swedish engineer Sten Gustaf Thulin who created them in 1959. The bags were developed as an alternative to paper bags, which were considered bad for the environment because they resulted in forests being chopped down. So, our usages should be considered, and we should do properly things and with care. And this is to save the planet, and doing our actions in relation to sustainable development, and every detail in life can be a big issue when using the same practice in every conceivable country and at every place at the earth.

Why are we using these plastic bags as humans, and is it sensible to use plastic bags among all the kinds of bags that we can imagine? A plastic bag consumes up to 40% less energy to make and causes 70 % less solid waste than a paper bag. Durable and Weatherproof: Plastic bags are known for their durability. They are less vulnerable to tearing and are resistant to many chemicals.

What is the main idea of the article plastic bags convenient or cruel? Plastic bags don't biodegrade. Natural processes with paper bags or other usual things than we have ever thought of in mankind causes 70 percent more air pollution and 50 times more water pollution than the process used to make plastic bags. Plastic bags are also more sanitary than reusable cotton or canvas bags, which can harbor harmful germs from raw meat and produce.

The major impact of plastic bags on the environment is that it takes many years to for them to decompose. In addition, toxic substances are released into the soil when plastic bags perish under sunlight and, if plastic bags are burned, they release a toxic substance into the air causing ambient air pollution.

People use plastic bags to carry items like food and clothes, which are bought from shops. Plastic bags are commonly used, even though we know they can damage the environment. For urban solid waste, plastic bags have become major items in the litter system. This has resulted in many detrimental environmental effects including animal choking, pollution, blockage of channels, rivers and streams, and landscape disfigurement. As a result of these effects, the public at large, activists and legislatures have voiced outrage to the degree that some national governments have banned the use of plastic bags for shopping. There are different internal effects and external effects of doing things, and these things are taken care of or they are not. Sometimes, things are going efficiently in the markets, and other times things are just stupid as they seem to be! And any person telling the truth in different countries are often better when coming from countries abroad than just being a domestic citizen!

There are many root causes to attribute the problem of plastic bag waste in Nigeria and other countries. South Africa, for example, has restricted the manufacture and usage of plastic bags by enacting parliamentary legislation. Several European countries have adopted a fee for plastic bags, taking into account the negative effect of plastic bags on agricultural production. The Japanese government has also levied a plastic bag fee to limit production and use. We should think before usages, and not doing usages before thinking. And this is the main issue being locally and globally involved for all people to all times. We have the things as we have today, and many things are incrementally discoveries from earlier times.

This is an informative article, I am of the opinion that bags should be biodegradable and there should be a balance in production of both plastic and paper bags. Over production of both affects the climate change negatively.
