Plastic Bottles are Dangerous! Date: February 2nd, 2022 Wednesday Hello my dear family. Yes, I'm late today. Sorry, for that. Recently I am facing some problems here. That's why my schedule changed but don't worry. Good to see you back here. Hey, whenever I greet you people that way, I feel like I'm talking to you people face to face. That's worthy. I mean just imagine, different people from different area are just here at a same time! Well, it is my honour to have you all at my space and it will be my great privilege to share some important words with you all. Shall we proceed to our today's topic which is based on some very serious issues? I think you all agreed. Well then, come on. Topic: Throwing Plastic Bottles in River & Ocean are Dangerous! Does this line seem alarming? Perhaps some people may not have that thoughts in their minds right now but sooner or later you will face the effect of this pollution. Throwing out our wastages in water sources will be harmful. Already we are facing different types of problems. Reasons are many but particularly I will discuss about throwing plastic bottles in water sources. Specially in river and ocean. These sources are our one of the key points for survival on this planet earth but we are now destroying it known and unknown ways. It feels like we are cutting the branch of the tree on which we are sitting. Not cool, right? **The most dangerous fact is a single plastic bottle needs 1000years, I repeat 1000years to completely decompose. And how long do we live, huh?**
If we open the chapter of pollution articles, most of them will show you a common picture. Plastic bottles floating on the upper level of ocean or river. And for your kind information, that is not one or two bottles, hundreds of them. So how on earth did those bottle get their place on that place? Simple answer is, by us, humans. Whom to blame else? Animals? No dear. We cannot just run away from these. This is on us. For example, we buy something like water, coke, oil and other liquid things from shop which comes in with a beautiful plastic bottle. But when the purpose of that bottle ends, we threw it away. Some find their ways in dustbin but maximum of them get their final destiny in river or ocean. One after one, then another and another. The quantity increases and the whole part of our ecosystem faces the problems. We then understand that we had done a huge mistake.
Our mistakes not only create problems for us but also it threaten the water creatures like fishes and other aquatic animals. For your kind information, like our ecosystem, they have their own which is highly interrupted by us. We are making the water toxic and throwing plastic bottles make the water uncomfortable for them. Clean water is rare where people throw plastic bottles. How painful the situation is! Water creatures can barely survive that. Less place to move around for them. First we narrow their living place by filling soil in water areas and then we are throwing plastic bottles on the rest. Is this humanity or our so called morality? How will you feel if someone throw away their wastages at your door? You my dear, will be so ferocious. Right? Then why we are doing so? What is our responsibilities then? Only clicking photos and posting those on social media will not solve this matter. We are destroying the life cycle of water creatures. Holding seminars and processions on road will not change it. We need to work on it for must. Not to show off but for reality. We should warn people not to throw away plastic bottles here and there.
We need to clean water. Plastic bottles and other items related with it can be recycled. That's a good point for us and we should definitely work on it. Remember one thing, the day of judgement, you will be questioned for such bad works. At least, do it for the sake of Almighty. **Dear friends, together we can make a change and I truly believe that we still have chances to change ourselves. It’s now or never situation. We can stop pollution. Ocean is a lovely place. Let it be like that.** All the images including the lead one are used from unsplash.com Thanks for being with me.

You highlighted the issue in a very good way. Plastic bottles if they are managed they could be very beneficial you are very right. We can make different designs using plastic bottles can plant different plants in that plastic bottles, they ate recycled ♽ to make other plastic goods, hope your article will bring a positive change in reader's minds.
Recycling is the only way dear. Well said. Thanks.
Plastic can really cause pollution, and we are responsible to keep our environment clean. Here in our country, many people are collecting plastic as they can earn money from plastic, cans and cartoons and even in papers so you cannot see plastic of drinking water everywhere as they are being collected by people, aside from those plastic bags.
You are right. We will face more problems in future.
Many ocean friends died because of plastics, when their bellies were opened, you could see what they've ingested. I do hope that we all be united in cleaning the ocean. Let us all do our part.
Hey, Athaliah told me about plastic bottle wall beside ocean. Is it true?
If they got it, that would be nice. We are from different provinces :)
Oh, I see. It's ok dear. Thanks.
Are you sure?
Yup
These plastic bottles poison the soil as well, hence resulting in food poisoning years later. It kills aquatic animals as well. Recycling is the only way way save is from thus mess.
Exactly dear. We are destroying them. That's not humanity, it's cruelty.
Indeed, they are mate. It will destroy our mother nature.
That's why we need a change. We need to save the environment.
They are polluting the ocean and it's not good for both the aquatic life and we humans.
Exactly. Indirectly we are harming us.
We can bring great change in our environment if one by one we will participate and commit on doing small and little acts of saving the environment. It would always start from a single act, a single step done habitually would be fruitful in the end.
If we do so then there is some hope. Otherwise it will be so late.
Lucifer, when I give a thought about topics like these global issues I just have this feeling that our future is doomed.
That's the harsh reality my friend.
One of the best topic that you chose and give us awareness about it because it's really agreed point very dangerous for our environment and we use it and then do through anywhere
Indeed dear. We should be more careful.
Plastic bottles are not biodegradable. They stay in the ocean for so many years and cause harm to the aquatic life and even pollutes our soil and water supply
We need to recycle them. Better way is this.
Yes, that's the better way
The best thing to do after using plastic is to dispose it.
It's tough. Better recycle it for reusing.
Ahem. I totally agree with you, but not exactly.... not that plastic is not pollution. It's a problem all over the world. I will say this - ordinary people (like you and me) would sincerely like not to do it. BUT!!! It's all about the power that stands above us, yes, I mean officials. Why do not they create enterprises for the recycling of plastics? There are some, but very few! And if there is no recycling, there is trash on every corner!
Completely agree with your words. Actually this work should be done by the officials but they are busy in their own dreams.
People need to care much more about the environment. It's sad. Protests are currently taking place in my country because the government has agreed with a foreign company to dig lithium in the most beautiful part of the country where nature is most beautiful and that lithium mining is dangerous and harmful to the environment.
Yes dear. I know you are aware of those. We need solution for it.
I feel sad to hear the way we are polluting the environment, not only for humans but for other creatures too. Its true we need to work on it to completely get rid of it.
Mass steps should be taken dear. That's really needed.
Dear Lucifer, you raised a very good topic. Even though there has been a culture of not throwing away plastic waste for years, I don't know why there is still so much plastic and plastic bottles everywhere when we go to nature. This is very painful, why some of us can not be responsible for our environment. When I see the pictures of the animals whose plastic waste endangered their health, my heart burns...
I feel the same dear. We are the reasons of their troubles.
Nice and very informative read. Recently some colleges here raised a campaign against plastics. As such the government has also directed all the shops to stop using plastics bags for supply of goods. Now its being replaced by newspaper.
Truth is a lot of human activities actually affect nature and we are not creating enough awareness. Neither are people taking it seriously. That's why posts like this should be made more often. Say once a week
I cannot stand plastic, and wherever possible do not use it When I go for my walks in the beach or the park I am always picking up plastic bottles that idiots leave behind.
If only all people had self-discipline on how to take good care of our Mother Earth maybe we could not suffer many calamities if there is but less.
Everyone should really start taking care of our nature and discipline themselves to dispose trash properly. No matter how we campaigh, if we dont have the cooperation from others, it would be hard for us
Unfortunately, people do not understand the need to protect nature. And pollute the environment
In the end we all suffer. That's true.
Action they say speaks louder than words.. the real thing isn't about spending money hosting seminars while after the seminar the bottles are wrongly dumped. Let sit and stand to do what's right. Together we can
Yes dear. Together we can definitely change the world.
Everything must come to ourselves first because posting photos doesn't help without doing any action. You're absolutely right luci
Thanks dear. You understood it.
We humans must be responsible enough to take care of our surroundings and also mother nature. There's a lot of people who's irresponsible in their trash, plastic bottles or even straws, or any trash can harm other creatures, others and nature. Even I myself go one time at a seminar about cleaning and improving nature but I saw it with my own eyes how one of committee just leave hes trash and don't put it properly where it must belong. So I really don't believe om words but on actions.
Change comes from heart. Not from show offs dear. I have seen such people too.
I feel guilty with this. No matter what I do, I cannot deny the fact that I am one of the people who irresponsibly throw their garbages anywhere. However, I am trying my best to change it and be a better inhabitant of this planet.
See? That’s the change. Good start dear.
