The Planet Earth Without Plastic Waste

Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakaatuh
The use of plastic has become part of everyday life, but its impact on the environment is very worrying. Plastic takes hundreds of years to decompose, and often ends up polluting marine and land ecosystems. The accumulation of plastic waste not only damages the aesthetics of the environment, but also threatens the survival of living things. As a young generation, I believe that we have a responsibility to reduce our dependence on plastic to ensure that the earth remains sustainable for future generations.
One real example is by reusing plastic waste at home, such as my mother's plant pots made of plastic. Processing plastic into a plant pot shows that plastic does not always have to be thrown away, but can be processed into functional items. In addition to reducing waste, utilization in this way is also a creative way to support "go-green". In addition, I also try to increase awareness in the surrounding environment by inviting friends and family to apply the 3R principle (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle). With a change in mindset like this, if done collectively, it will have a good impact.
In addition to the individual level, I support policies that strengthen regulations on plastic use. For example, the implementation of a ban on plastic bags in shopping centers, or replacing the use of bottled water which is packaged in plastic.
With the methods that I have explained above, hopefully the community can care more and be involved in handling the problem of plastic waste. Environmental concern must begin from oneself, because even small actions can bring big results.
Thank you. Wassalamu'alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakaatuh.- Affiliation
