A Drive Against Plastic bags

The Jain International School, Nagpur identified the problem of the use of

plastic bags in the city. The shopkeepers supply the customers with polythene bags to carry the purchased goods. Our school selected the project

to discourage the people to use of plastic bags.

The wasted newspapers were used for making paper bags. In this way there was considerable use of the old and

discarded newspapers. The students educated the shopkeepers and made

them aware about the disadvantages of the use of plastic bags and exchanged

them with the paper bags.
