    National Service

    Scheme(NSS)
    Against
    Plastic
    Usage
    Motive
    The main motive of our
    NGO is to spread
    awareness among the
    people to
    “REDUCE”,”REUSE” and
    “RECYCLE” the PLASTIC
    and save our
    “ENVIRONMENT”
    Production and
    Usage

    1. Plastic produced per


    year is 660,787tonnes
    in India.
    2. Delhi produces 11% of
    total plastic waste per
    year and Jamshedpur
    produces 3.94% of total
    plastic waste per year.
    Delhi is the leading city
    for producing the
    plastic waste whereas
    the Jamshedpur is the
    least.
    Why Jamshedpur is
    the least consumer
    of plastic?
    The reason of Jamshedpur being
    the least plastic producing city of
    India is that it is the Industrial city
    of India where the plastic waste is
    being processed and is used in the
    construction of the roads. The first
    initiative was taken
    by Jamshedpur Utility and
    Services Company (JUSCO) using
    bitumen technology on waste
    plastic, ranging from polybags to
    biscuit packets, for constructing
    roads. JUSCO has constructed
    12-15 kms road in the steel city as
    well as Tata Steel Works besides
    widening 22 roads using the
    environment-friendly technology
    of utilising waste plastic.
    Why plastic is
    harmful?
    ❖Plastic never goes away.
    •Plastic is a material made
    to last forever, yet 33
    percent of all plastic -
    water bottles, bags and
    straws - are used just once
    and thrown away.
    •Plastic cannot biodegrade;
    it breaks down into smaller
    and smaller pieces.
    Plastic affects
    human health.

    Toxic chemicals leach out


    of plastic and are found in
    the blood and tissue of
    nearly all of us. Exposure to
    them is linked to cancers,
    birth defects, impaired
    immunity, endocrine
    disruption and other
    ailments.
    Plastic threatens
    wildlife.

    Wildlife become
    entangled in plastic,
    they eat it or mistake it
    for food and feed it to
    their young, and it is
    found littered in even
    extremely remote areas
    of the Earth.
    How to avoid plastic
    use?

    • Bring your own cloth


    bags to the grocery
    store
    •Avoid buying items
    packaged in plastic.
    •Upcycle
    •Don't just discard
    electronics.
    •Bring your own
    container for takeout
    and leftovers.
