Polybags & environment

In 2002, the government banned the production and use of polybags in our country. Unfortunately, polybags are being widely used again everywhere. Now, we are using a huge amount of polybgas daily and then throwing those into drains. Polybags block the flow of drain water. So, the drainage systems of our big city like Dhaka and Chittagong are blocked in the rainy season due to polybags. Polybags are also a threat to our environment and agriculture. We can use recyclable paper bags.
