SAY NO TO SINGLE USE PLASTIC

Right now the Movement Of "Say No To Single Use Plastic" is on every where so i made this small presentation for Public Awareness. I Referred The Book Which is published By U.N.with Name single Use Plastic_sustainability.
I am sure it will motivate many by saying that NO TO SINGLE USE PLASTIC After watching this presentation.

1. Say NO To Single Use Plastic Presented By P.M.Yaduvanshi Civil Engineering Department Sir. Bhavsinhji Polytechnic Institute B H A V N A G A R

2. Plastic is a lightweight, hygienic and resistant material which can be moulded in a variety of ways and utilized in a wide range of applications.

3. Formed by addition polymerization Soften on heating because bonding forces between chains break by heat or pressure. Can be reshaped or reused. Usually soft, weak and less brittle. Soluble in suitable solvents. Formed by condensation polymerization Do not soften on heating. On prolonged heating, charring of polymer is caused. Can not be reshaped or reused. Usually hard, strong and more brittle. Insoluble in organic solvents. THERMOSETS THERMOPLASTICS

4. Single Use Plastics Single-use plastics (disposable plastics) are commonly used for plastic packaging and include items intended to be used only once before they are thrown away or recycled. These include: Grocery bags Food packaging Bottles Straws, containers, cups cutlery

5. Grocery bags Food packaging

6. bottles straws

7. Cups & Containers Cutlery

8. Plastic Decoration & Thermocol Items

9. Global plastic production by industrial sector, 2015

10. Plastic packaging waste generation, 2014 (million Mt)

11. Single-use plastic bags are used to carry goods and usually provided to customers at the point of sale. The most common shopping bags are made of a type of plastic called polyethylene – or polythene – a tough, light, flexible, synthetic resin obtained by polymerizing ethylene. In South Africa, there are so many P lastic B ags littering the environment that many joke that plastic bags are “ New national flower”

12. Environmental impacts: Take up to thousands of years to decompose Hazards to wildlife on land and in the ocean Plastic bags can choke waterways and exacerbate natural disasters. ( floods in Bangladesh ) In 1988, poor drainage resulting from plastic bag litter clogging drains contributed to devastating floods in Bangladesh, causing several deaths as two-thirds of the country was submerged

13. Toxic chemicals such as styrene and benzene (carcinogenic) By blocking sewage systems and providing breeding grounds for mosquitoes and other pests, plastic bags can raise the risk of transmission of vector-borne diseases such as malaria. if ingested by fish or other marine life, can enter our food chain . Health and Social impacts

14. Health and Social impacts Plastics blocking the airways and stomachs of hundreds of species Plastic waste is often burned for heat or cooking, exposing people to toxic emissions

15. T he future costs of removing all single-use plastics accumulating in the environment is estimated as higher than the costs of preventing littering today Economic impacts:

16. 1. Waste Management System Improvements

17. 1. Waste Management System Improvements Segregation of waste at source Segregation of Plastics By Codes

18. 2. Promotion of Eco-friendly Alternatives

19. 3. Voluntary Reduction Strategies

20. 4. Framing Regulatory And Economic Instruments

21. National-level plastic bag bans and Styrofoam regulations

22. National-level plastic bag bans and Styrofoam regulations

23. National-level plastic bag bans and Styrofoam regulations

24. National-level plastic bag bans and Styrofoam regulations

25. 5. Social Awareness/ Public Pressure

26. Despite initial resistance from the local government, the governor eventually signed a memorandum of understanding to phase out plastic bags by 2018. Two teenagers campaigned for over four years to get plastic bags banned from the island, starting with a petition that collected over 100,000 signatures. 5. Social Awareness/ Public Pressure

27. Public action as driver of change BEFORE AFTER 2015 2017 Versova Beach , Mumbai

28. Plastics – Use in Construction Industry Roads with use of plastic waste

29. Plastic roads vs conventional roads Overall reduction in bitumen consumption by 10‐15% Enhanced load carrying strength Less wear and tear, i.e. longer life Laying 1 Km of road requires 10 Lakh carry bags Prevents release of 3 tonnes of CO2 (through disposal by burning) into the atmosphere Increased road strength (Marshall Stability Value)

30. Our Prime Minister Committed To Say NO To Single Use Plastic
