E-commerce is accounting for a higher proportion of the retail sector. online shopping is very convenient in terms of being able to shop anywhere at any time but what about the enormous waste that is generated through this?
we all shop online more than ever and thereby getting unwanted waste into our homes in the form of plastic packaging bags, cardboard boxes, bubble wraps etc. several people are talking to E-commerce companies to try and get them to comply with the plastic ban and we all know that they cannot change their packaging norms overnight. certain E-commerce companies like Flipkart claims that their packaging material is recyclable, and it is up to the individual consumer to actually recycle and reuse.
so until then, our earth needs all of us to take a move now. How do we do that?
Upcycling: you can take this piece of trash and use it to create something better. eg cardboard boxes can be great storage bins for books and toys.
you can always reuse these plastic packagings, there are so many creative and useful ways out there. you can simply google some ideas on how to upcycle them. no matter what size and type of plastic packaging it is we can always find a way to reuse them.
Recycle: let's do something about the wasteful packaging that comes with the online shopping.
How should we handle this fast-growing mountain of packaging waste? should we just dump it ? or be responsible human and recycle it?
I request everyone to collect the amount of e-commerce waste they receive monthly or annually and hand it over to the respective scrap yards. And let me know amount trash you collected and also new ideas on how to deal with this ever-increasing problem.
we all have a responsibility towards our environment. The government should also encourage environment-friendly packaging material and together we all can crush plastic once for all for the sake of our planet earth.
