'Controlling use of plastic bottles'

Aminur Rahim's letter on the above subject published in your column a few days ago deserves appreciation. Use of plastic bottles is very common and conventional all over the world. And refund of small price for the return of empty bottles and cans is also customary in the US and many other countries. This can be made mandatory in our country, if necessary, by promulgating a law. If random littering of plastic bottles is stopped, it will prevent the environment from getting polluted.
