| contents | <p>The problem of plastic waste management has emerged to be one of the biggest problems on a worldwide scale because plastic products cost very little, are durable, and remain intact in nature for several centuries. However, while most of the plastic in India is recovered by a huge informal labor force, the nation suffers from poor segregation and an absence of technologically advanced recycling units. Consequently, much of the plastic is either dumped into landfills or seas, which causes it to degrade into microplastics that cause adverse effects on public health and soil quality. Conversely, highly industrialized nations such as Japan implement stringent measures wherein its citizens are required to segregate waste into various groups. Therefore, the nation is capable of recycling almost 84% of its plastic content. For India to make progress, it should consider following the footsteps of these developed nations through the implementation of technological improvements and corporate accountability.</p> |
