Pradeep Nath of the VSPCA has a vision. A formal writ petition has been given to High Court and the Forest and Pollution ministries to ban all plastic bags in our state of Andhra Pradesh =E2=80=94 for reasons of harm to animals and the environment. Plastic bags are now littered all over =E2=80=94 caught in the trees and floating in the rivers. They clog the gutters and contribute to floods. They are especially hard on wildlife on land and also in the water leading to numerous animal deaths. Free roaming cows routinely eat them along with the rest of the garbage on the street. Further compounding the problem is that in India there is little trash and recycling pickup. It seems an impossible task to ban the bags due to their increasing ubiquitous use but in the year 2000 Pradeep did succeed in banning the colored plastic bags in the city of Visakhapatnam. (Colored bags are more of a risk as the cows are attracted to them more and try and eat them.) While it was only a ruling it was a start and now VSPCA is going after a ban for the white plastic bags ones as well! Several other Indian states have already done this =E2=80=94 so there is hope.
