About Making The Difference

Established in 2015, Making The Difference established in 2015 founded by Mr. Deepak Vishwakarma is an NGO formed with an aim to serve the needy.

The primary focus of MTD has been on Sustainable Development. Their mission lies in providing the youth with education, proper nutrition and guidance and plant more and more trees in order to live fulfilling lives.

Our Environment

Environment – 7 Billion people call it home. Human’s greed has been a great threat to our environment. According to a report, estimated 9 lakh premature deaths will take place by 2040 due to air pollution. Various species of animals & plants have faced extinction & majority are endangered. Lack of proper garbage disposal makes an unhygienic country of ours. Plastic is non-biodegradable & can cause pollution & deaths in our environment. Major problems like climate change, Global warming, Depletion of Ozone layer, food poisioning due to harmful pesticides & fertilizers are continuously growing.

If not you know, then who? If not now, then when?

Top 10 Ways To Help Strays

According to a recent survey, there are around 6.2 crore stray dogs and 91 lakh stray cats in India that have been abandoned, born into it or ran away due to abusive homes. That is why India has such a huge stray problem, we might be compelled to point towards the problems that are caused by strays but how many of us have tried to look into these stray’s lives?

Every year around the world 5.5 million animals lose lives due to vehicle collisions, newly abandoned strays find it difficult to survive in the harsh environment, they do not getting proper food or water and succumb to various diseases. We as humans should have been compassionate towards these voiceless animals but we have become the ones who torture, beat and sometimes even kill them for the sake of entertainment.

Dogs- one of the most loyal animals fails to get loyalty back from its owners. They are cruelly abandoned and find it difficult to survive as they lived in comfort all their lives, they face competition from other street dogs who have been living on the streets all their life. They are bullied by children and adults alike that damage their morale, they are increasingly susceptible to diseases especially maggots. Majority of dog disease case in animal shelters is of maggots.

People turn a blind eye to the happenings and do nothing to save or protect them, at this time we meet the hero’s of the story- the ones who stand up for them and save them from such inhumane practices.  These statistics might invoke a feeling of compassion or pity in you so what can you really do to help these strays or in providing them with a more comfortable lifestyle. We urge you to become the next hero for these poor souls and therefore present you with:

‘The Top 10 Ways To Help Strays’

He who feeds a hungry animal, feeds his own soul.                                                 Charlie Chaplin

  • Donate to genuine sites

If you are not able to go out there and help strays you can always try donating to genuine sites that help animals in need. You can opt to pay for their medical expenses, food neccesities etc or you can also sponsor an animal. Through this if not physically you are virtually helping a being.

  • Adopt

Adopt an animal and provide it with a comfortable lifestyle. You can go to an animal shelter and adopt a pet that way you get a friend and they get a family. It is not just enough to adopt a pet you need to take proper care of it by providing it with nutriscious food, weekly vet visits and your love.

  • Rescuing Pets

Whenever you see a stray dog that’s struggling, don’t ignore these pets and try contacting the nearest stray shelter for help. The stray shelter will pick up the stray from the location and would ensure good protection and treatment of the same.

help strays care compassion
  • Regular Visits

Regularly visit animal shelters to spend some time with the strays. You can carry treats with you for the strays and spend quality time with them and let them know there are still people who care about them.

  • Working As A Volunteer

Try working at pet shelters as a volunteer during long summer breaks. This way you can look after pets and also do a noble task. Volunteering at pet shelters may ask you to feed the pets, take them for vet visits, rescue them from adverse situations or something as simple as playing with them and keeping them involved.

  • Awareness Campaigns

In India, the youth constitutes of 22 percent of the population that is approximately 261 million people even larger than the population of some countries. If the youth unites to spread a positive message, it is bound to get the attention of many. We should organize awareness campaigns about various stray issues and unite people to fight for the cause.

  • Free Aid

If you are in the position of someone like a vet or a dog food seller, you can try providing free aids weekly, monthly or on special occasions. You can help them this way and also not incur much loss.

  • Raise your Voice

There are multiple instances where people have gone the inhumane way to torture the strays. Throwing rocks on them, chasing them with sticks, attaching firecrackers to their tails, pouring boiling hot water on them are only some dehumanizing things people have indulged in. So whenever you see the voiceless being tortured you should raise your voice and stop them, eventually more people would join.

  • Food and water bowls

Keep food and water bowls in front of your house for the animals to  feed from and cool down. Many strays starve due to harsh conditions, this endeavor would help them in surviving onto some extent on their own.

  • Being Considerate

We should be considerate towards the animals and try helping them in whatever way we can.

How To Be A Good Pet Parent

Pets are considered to be our best friends, someone very loyal, a family member, and rightfully so. They have been an inseparable part of any pet parent’s lives. However it is equally important that we know how to treat and take care of our fluffy friends. Sometimes we might end up ignoring them or not taking proper care of their needs, that doesn’t always mean that we are irresponsible or don’t love them it might be that we don’t quite know “How To”. 

Taking care of pets is not an easy job and requires one to spend their time on their pets for their well-being and health. It is not feasible to just provide them with space to live in and food, you need to take care of their other needs as well such as regular veterinary visits, play dates, walks or taking them out of their enclosures, etc, and most importantly – lots of love. 

Some points discussed herein are:

  • Comfortable space 
  • keeping them in pairs 
  • Veterinary visits
  • Rescue pets
  • Grooming
  • Love 

So we are here to help you with some instructions on
“ HOW TO BE A GOOD PET PARENT ”

The best therapist has fur and four legs                                                                      Felix H.

Comfortable space

Provide your pets with a comfortable space, when buying or adopting pets keep in mind your living situations so that your pets have sufficient place to roam around. If you live in a small setting don’t adopt huge pets as they require more place to play. Try to keep all harmful objects out of your pet’s paws so they don’t harm themselves like open wires, sharp objects, etc.

Keep them in pairs

Try to keep them in pairs so that they don’t get separation anxiety or if you are not able to, try organizing frequent play dates and take them out on walks or try playing with them. Some breeds of dogs require an additional partner to survive or they can even die of loneliness. Try researching in depth about the kind of pet that you want to get and their habits and habitat.

Veterinary visits

Never disregard any weird symptoms that your pet shows, try to regularly take them on vet visits even if they are the most minute. If your pet gets hurt, is bleeding or gets scratched even take them to the doc and get them treated, provide them with timely vaccinations. Even if your pet seems fit and fine don’t skip your scheduled vet visits.

Rescue pets

Try adopting pets from NGO’s or genuine places that work towards rescuing pets. This way you ensure that they get the love and care that they deserve. These pets were either in a abusive home or got rescued from extreme conditions so instead of buying new pets try to adopt providing them a place to call home.

pet parent care compassion Impaac

Grooming

Keep your pets well groomed so that they are clean and don’t invite germs or fall sick. Try taking them to pet salons to groom them, try to cut their nails, brush their teeth, give them regular baths, brush their hair gently etc. These activities keep a check on their health as well and get rid of any unknown substance on their body.

Love

Most importantly love them endlessly, try communicating with them through gestures, teach them to obey simple commands, play with them and pamper them with affection. This goes a long way in keeping their mental sanity. Don’t make them feel abandoned or alone, make time for them from your schedule and shower them with Love.

These habits can go a long way in keeping you and your pet connected and in helping your pets in adapting to a new enviornment. If this blog helped you in any way do like, share and subscribe to keep getting such informative blogs regularly. 

 

Why Do Dogs Run Away?

Why Do Dogs Run Away?

CT medical help with donate button

Are you a dog owner who is concerned about your dog running away? It is, indeed, a valid concern.

You’re most likely doing all in your power to keep them safe and happy. But, are you still wondering, ‘why does my dog run away from me?’ They may just become distracted, puzzled, or fearful of a particular situation.

You may encounter this problem when you adopt a new dog or pup. Having them run away will undoubtedly make you nervous. Is there anything you can do to help? Sure.

Understanding that point of view, here’s an article about why your dog runs away and how to avoid it.

Why Do Dogs Run Away?
Why Run Away?

It's their time to mate or your dog is afraid of something

During the height of their heat, they feel compelled to mate with the opposite sex.

In this scenario, they wait until they can rush out to find their mate. Be prepared if you have other dogs in your neighborhood or strays nearby. That is when they wait to run away from home and pounce on the other dogs to mate. It is natural, but certainly something you should look into.


The question of ‘why do dogs run away from home?’ is a familiar one. Fear is the most common reason for dogs to flee. It may be fireworks or anything else that makes them afraid. Thunderstorms affect dogs adversely too. In such situations, your pet may become disoriented and get lost.

Even if you have well-trained your pet, they are prone to flee if they are afraid. Examine the surroundings to determine what spooked them, whether specific sound, item, or person


"Dogs don't make our whole lives, but they make our lives whole." - Roger Caras

Why Do Dogs Run Away?
What Should He Choose?

They have anxiety, They don't get to go out often or it is simply frustrated

Some dogs are born anxious, while others develop it later in life. You could also notice them acting strangely, such as whimpering in the middle of the night.

If you’re wondering, “why does my dog keeps running away” it might be due to separation anxiety. If they were separated from their mother or brood when they were much older than newborn pups, they might desire to flee due to separation anxiety.


Have you ever thought that you might not be walking your dog enough? Your pet may like snuggling on his bed, but he prefers to go for walks too. It is an important aspect of their routine that you should not neglect.

They will have the temptation to run out and have fun if you don’t take them out frequently enough.


Your dog may get annoyed, anxious, or frustrated. Why? That might be because you leave them alone too frequently, tether them, or simply do not love them enough.

At the end of the day, they’re just like kids. They want your full attention, and if you don’t provide it to them, they may try to flee

How to Choose a Right Dog

How to Choose a Right Dog

Finally, you are getting a dog!

You are finally planning to buy or adopt a dog. That is a huge step. But, how do you make sure that you are choosing the right one? Here are four things you should think about before buying ot adopting a dog.

How to Choose a Right Dog
Dogs Everywhere

I thought she was doing her bit for the animals by being vegan, but it stumbled upon her one day that not participating in cruelty is not enough; She needed to do more. During the #lockdown, she got time to introspect. She decided to shut down her business, and that’s when she applied to Peepal Farm – an animal rescue organization in Himachal Pradesh, to work for animals’ full time.

  1. Knowing the dog’s energy level is very important. This will determine the amount of exercise you need to give the dog and in turn the amount of time you need to invest in him. A high energy dog will require at least an hour of running around or long walks . Whereas a mellow dog will do maybe with half hour of exercise.

2. The need of attention of every dog differs. A dog who stays around you and keeps nudging you will need you to engage with them often. A more independent dog who is content and sits peacefully will not need constant attention from you.

How to Choose a Right Dog
Someone Furr Everyone

3. The age of the dog is also very important. Raising a puppy is a lot of fun, but will need a lot of patience, training, toys and many more. While a mature dog will need alesser amount of training and time.

4. And if Veterinary bills are a consideration, then mixed breed dogs fit the bill better as they have lesser health issues. A pure pedigree dog can require more maintenance.

           And in case you do have some money to spare then we suggest you adopt a Special needs dog which we assure you will be far more rewarding and fulfilling. They can have issues such as limited mobility or some allergy but still have a good quality of life and be very loving.

Story of Summer – The Doggy

Survival!

Summer was born on streets. Some time ago, she was in a serious accident. She was severely injured. Her leg had many injuries and the bone was broken. She survived the accident but was in a very serious condition.

Summer With Volunteer Of Peepal Farm

Ray of Hope

Summer was brought to Peepal Farm, Dharmashala by their volunteers. The treatment was immediately started. She was so scared in the beginning days that she couldn’t come outside to meet others. She lost one leg but slowly she got recovered and got used to the friendly environment of Peepal Farm. She lived in a cozy kennel and made many friends after a few days. She used to jump around and play in nearby area so people used to call her “Rabbit”. That’s how she started living a happy life.

After getting cured and spending amazing time at Peepal Farm, a lovely family decided to adopt Summer. Satyam Singh from Ghaziabad adopted the jumping rabbit of Peepal Farm. She found the family that truly loves her and cares about her. She is happy, healthy and as always jumping!

#MyStory

Born and brought up in Mumbai, she was a part of an affluent Jain family. In the initial years of my career, she was a fashion designer and ran her clothing label, named The Third Floor Clothing’. Having a reasonably successful career, she showcased my clothing line at #Lakme Fashion Week and #Amazon India Fashion Week in the first six months of starting my label.

With her career taking its road at the back of my mind, she was always stuck with notions of eventually marrying and settling down. Her aim through this time was always to see herself as a businesswoman, but life had its plans for her.

I thought she was doing her bit for the animals by being vegan, but it stumbled upon her one day that not participating in cruelty is not enough; She needed to do more. During the #lockdown, she got time to introspect. She decided to shut down her business, and that’s when she applied to Peepal Farm – an animal rescue organization in Himachal Pradesh, to work for animals’ full time.

 


"We can judge a man's heart by his treatment of animals"
- Immanuel Kant


Choosing to dedicate her work to animals has been the most empowering decision of her life so far. Saloni soon understood that rescuing hurt animals from the streets is just curing the symptoms. The real problem that is often not addressed is people’s perspective and attitude towards animals.

 

This is precisely what she is aiming to work towards – animal welfare and awareness. Saloni wants to be part of making this world a better place even for animals, and there’s no looking back from this one.

Ashay Bhave – Making Shoes from Recycled Plastic

Ashay Bhave is taking positive steps to make way for a greener future

Recycled Shoes
Ashay Bhave With His Creation

With global brands and next-gen designers making revolutionary materials from mushrooms, pineapple fibres and recycled rubber, the footwear industry is getting a sustainable spin too. Footwear labels like Neeman’s introduced ReLive Knits, a sneaker made from 100% recycled PET bottles, Woodland launched a range of biodegradable footwear and Paadkus designs shoes made from scrap tyres. 

Now, there’s a fresh label on the block doing its bit to keep the landfills and ocean clean–Thaely. Named after the Hindi term for a plastic bag to draw the audience’s attention to the mounting plastic pollution, Thaely is a sustainable sneaker brand that makes shoes from discarded plastic. And you’d be surprised to know that its brainchild is a 22-year-old, Ashay Bhaave. 

Ashay Bhave
Meet Ashay Bhave

Born in Mumbai, and currently residing in Dubai, Ashay has always wanted to better the world and contribute to environmental welfare. Spurred by this passion, Ashay introduced an innovative solution that paved the way for a greener fashion industry. Moving closer to its goal of cutting down the plastic globally, Thaely has recycled about 36,000 plastic bags and 25,000 plastic bottles since it started production at the beginning of this year. In a chat with the young CEO and creative director, we find out more about the label. 

The Idea

ASHAY BHAVE – I started Thaely after I heard about the single-use plastic ban in India. Though the law was widely celebrated, it was never imposed in most areas. I also found out that on an average 5 trillion plastic bags are consumed each year worldwide, and 14% of plastic bags make up the biggest portion of all marine plastic waste. Despite this, there was almost no real way of entirely recycling plastic bags and I was motivated to find a solution to this problem through ThaelyTex—a fabric that looks and feels like leather but is made entirely out of waste plastic bags. 

Recycled Shoes
The Shoes

The Material

ASHAY BHAVE – We use 10 plastic bags and 12 plastic bottles for one pair of Thaely Y2K Pros. We use ThaelyTex for the upper (part of a boot or shoe above the sole) and rPET made from plastic bottles for the upper and shoelaces, recycled rubber for the sole, and vegan glue. The shoe box is plantable—it’s made from recycled paper, dyed with waste coffee grounds and has basil seeds embedded in it.

The Main Model

The Process

ASHAY BHAVE – The production process starts with the collection, segregation and sanitation of waste plastic bags. These plastic bags are processed into ThaelyTex, which is then shipped to our shoe factory where it is assembled with other components to make the final shoe. The production process does not need any additional chemicals nor does it release any toxic chemicals as a by-product.

Recycled Shoes
The Procedure

Challenges

ASHAY BHAVE – The biggest challenge we faced was right at the first step of acquiring the plastic bags. To my surprise, I found one online when I received a message on LinkedIn from TrioTap Technologies, a waste management plant in Gurgaon. They were not only interested in collecting waste plastic bags but were also willing to process it into ThaelyTex. 

What’s next for Thaely?

ASHAY BHAVE – We have a few more colours coming up and a high-top version is being prototyped. Also, we plan to launch apparel soon.

Being Friends With Cats

Being Friends with Stray Cats

Gaining the Trust of a Stray Cat

If a stray cat visits your home, you may find yourself wanting to pet him like a house cat. But sometimes, stray cats can be very skittish and reluctant to trust you. How do you get a stray cat to come to you? Getting a cat to like you involves a lot of patience, compassion, and a calm, quiet demeanor when you’re around the kitty.

Understand the Difference Between a Feral Cat and a Stray Cat

First, understand the difference between a stray cat and a feral cat. A feral cat was born wild and never knew a human. These kitties will act terrified of you and may never come close, no matter what you do.

A stray cat, on the other hand, is a cat that once knew human companionship. Stray cats may be timid at first but will warm up over time. If your stray cat simply won’t come near you no matter how long you wait, it’s not your fault. He may simply be feral. Rest assured, your feral cat will still truly appreciate it if you feed him and give him an outdoor shelter, even if he doesn’t outwardly show it.

Being Friends With Cats
Black Cats Are Cute Too

The Fastest Way to a Stray Cat's Heart Is Through Her Stomach

Stray cats are often hungry cats, so the best first move is to feed the kitty and provide lots of water. Once the cat learns you’re a source for food, she will visit every day. For some very friendly cats, this is enough to gain their trust. But others need more time.

Start by leaving a strong-smelling cat food, like one with tuna, outside where you’ve seen the cat. Try to put the food out at the same time every day, and watch from a distance to see if she eats it. You may need to watch through a window from inside your home at first.


If cats could talk, they wouldn’t!!


If it’s cold outside, consider keeping the cat’s food and water in a Thermo-Kitty Cafe that keeps the food and water from freezing. If you need something that holds more water, consider the K&H CleanFlow Filtered Water Bowl for Cats, which can come with a 90-ounce reservoir. Make sure you place the bowl in a fully enclosed area to protect it from the elements. When it’s hot in the summer, a Coolin’ Bowl is a good option

Check Below Your Cars Before Leaving

Give Him a Safe, Comfy Bed

Stray cats can have a hard time when braving the weather and extreme temperatures outdoors. The more stressed a cat is, the less likely he will engage with you in any meaningful way.

If you can, leave your garage door or another place with a roof slightly open, so your stray cat can go inside when it’s raining or the temperatures are extreme. If it’s cold, consider a heated Thermo Outdoor Kitty House or the Thermo Outdoor Multi-Kitty A-Frame. Both are water-resistant for the outdoors, and the heated versions come with pet-safe heating pads. Another option is the Thermo Mod Kitty Shelter, which is also waterproof and comes with a heated pad that covers half the floor. As the weather warms up, the heated pads can be removed (so the cat doesn’t overheat) and replaced with a comfy cushion.




Cats choose us, we don't own them. - Kristin Cast



Stay Very Still When She Eats

After your cat is accustomed to finding the food you leave for her, try staying outside when you leave the food, but at a distance.1 Don’t try to approach her when she appears; instead, stay very still. Remember that a cat’s body language is different than yours. Don’t stare directly into her eyes for long periods of time. If you do catch her gaze, blink slowly. Don’t act overly interested in her, and she will trust you more.

Being Friends With Cats
Help A Stray Cat

Let the Stray Cat Make the First Move

Let your stray cat approach you first. This may take days or even weeks. Don’t try to walk up and pet him. Give him a chance to rub against your leg cautiously. Speak soothingly to him. You can try extending your hand slowly and gently, but don’t try to pet him. Let him approach and sniff your hand. He may sniff your hand and then rub it with his head, which is an invitation for a gentle pet.

Remember, a stray cat that trusts you one day may not have the same level of trust the next.2 Sometimes his outdoor adventures will leave him stressed and a little less friendly. Don’t be discouraged if you sometimes feel like you’ve regressed. With time and patience, your stray cat will come to trust you and want pets consistently. You might even start giving him access to your home from time to time if your bond has grown. At some point, you may want to take him to the vet for a checkup and vaccinations.

It’s a beautiful thing when you finally gain the trust of a stray cat. Some cats have had a hard time in life, and, for whatever reason, they end up homeless. By winning a stray cat’s trust and providing some essentials for him, you could make a huge impact on his life. And you’ll gain a lovable feline companion as well.

Pets in Diwali

How to Take Care of Your Pets in Diwali

• Keep the pets restricted inside a room

Avoid the pets coming with direct contact with the crackers and other fireworks and let them stay in an area enclosed. Shut down all the doors and windows of the room so that the loud noise cannot reach their ears as these sounds create anxiety in pets. The diyas and other lightning objects should be kept away from pets as they don’t understand that this may harm them.


Pets in Diwali
Pets In DIwali

• Cover the ears of pets with earmuffs

Try to keep your pet’s ears covered with earmuffs or any soft piece of cloth to avoid the noise created by fireworks. The sound becomes unbearable and hazardous for dogs as their hearing sense is 7 times that of humans so the volume affects them the most. Play soothing music in their surroundings so that they get distracted from outside noise.


• Keep your pets out of reach from sweets of Diwali

Stop your pet from eating a lot of sweets as eating too much may affect their digestive system. The sweets also may not suit their digestion because of quality issues. During Diwali don’t forget to feed your dogs with their regular food and don’t feed them with whatever you eat.

Pets in Diwali
Pets In Diwali

• Maintain cleanliness by removing all burnt crackers and chemicals associated with it

During Diwali, a lot of chemical mixed items are used like crackers, pooja materials, rangoli colours and other toxic elements. Make sure that after the celebration everything is removed and the house is cleaned as chemicals are harmful to pets and they may by mistake lick those items with chemicals or end up consuming them. Also, keep in mind electrical connections and remove circuits to prevent your pet from getting electrocuted.


• Keep your pets hydrated

Water is a very essential need of pets so give them required water to drink in a suitable area. Water will help them in dealing with the anxiety caused by loud noises and fireworks. It is a good suggestion to take your pet to a veterinarian and get an anxiety injection.

Home for Strays

We see stray animals on the road and around us. They are in many forms. We see bulls as they are useless in human society as tractors replaced the work in fields. We see donkeys moving around as they also do not have anyway useful.  The same way comes to the pigs, dogs, etc. Cow become stray after they do not give milk which is useful for human society. So Human being looks for benefit-driven animals and has no responsibility toward stray animals. Even older people, which not earn are treated as useless in some homes as they give not any way useful for their children.

Roaming Street Animals

The solution sought by thinkers of modern society is “finish them”. The logic is stray dogs bite us. Stray bulls and donkeys cause a lot of problems. The more views put forward is cut them and create meat which will earn some income.  Are we thinking & becoming more and more self-centered?

The Vedic theory always put-up logic of creating peace and harmony around us and taking responsibility of your family and around us.  Gaushala are run on religious grounds mainly and not on humanity grounds. We take responsibility of animals on which we have full control as pets in homes or useful for us in monetary terms like horses, buffaloes, cows and others. But real persons should take the responsibility of stray animals around us. We can prepare some food for these animals along with regular food and feed them. You will find more happiness and satisfaction then keeping a pet and caring for own satisfaction.

World Mental Health Day

     Many of us had to cope with the impact of the Coronavirus pandemic on our daily lives over the last year and a half. Fear of the unknown, loss of loved ones, loneliness, and uncertainty – all of them have a negative impact on our mental health. According to WHO, 2020-21 are the years when most people are facing mental issues.

     Having mental health issues is very common and quite normal. Yes, it’s not good for your health but it can be cured easily if done in the right way. Mental health is still considered taboo in most countries. People with mental illness are called crazy and weird. This only makes things worse for those people. That’s why, to create awareness and making mental sickness a topic that can be discussed publicly, the World Federation of Mental Health declared the 10th of October as World Mental Health Day.

Plastic Game

Tit For Tat Of The Plastic Game Between Humans And Environment

Impaac for a real dynamic Impact! We here at Impaac serve folks to get aware about the needs of our planet. We holistically cover people, pets, plants, environment and the societal constituents. Join in, discover more and make an impact, The Impaac Way!

There is an urgent need for plastic to be eradicated from our surroundings for it destroys the nature, harms the marine life and life on land and pollutes our environment. Plastic being degradable remains in the nature, and if consumed by stray animals is very hazardous for their health or can even cause their death. Permanent plastic removal is very crucial for the uncountable hazards it carries along such as its toxic effect on human health, spoilage of our groundwater, poisoning the balanced food chain leading to its uneven breakage, threatening the wildlife and toxic chemical additives to food and drinks.

THE PLASTIC POLLUTION

Plastic Pollution

Plastic Pollution is caused by the accumulation of all the plastic waste in the environment. Pollution caused by plastic in the environment is utmost hazardous for both life on land and water. The marine litter causes interference in the survival of marine life such as fishing nets that are continuously used to trap wildlife and waste. The intake and ingestion of plastic by  animals is dangerous beyond limits. The plastic pollution in oceans specifically can also emerge mainly from household waste which is not processed adequately. This waste which comes from several households is poorly recycled, dumped in landfills, abandoned in nature which further is carried away by the winds, pushed by rains into sewers also blocking and effecting the drainage system. This waste end up being poured into streams, rivers and finally reaching and polluting the oceans. Various natural disasters are caused by this plastic pollution only. All in all, Plastic pollution have harmful effects on all the aspects including wildlife, land, rivers, natural habitat and human life too.

Only we humans make the waste that nature can’t digest                                                                                                                                         -Charles Moore

Plastic is that polymer which was scattered by humans all over the environment. Humans are rapidly using more and more plastic materials may it be plastic polythenes, containers, boxes, cups or vending packaging, plastic was widely used everywhere. Despite of many state governments banning the use of plastic, still humans were constantly irresponsible in the usage of plastic leading to natural spoilage of the constituents of environmental factors.

Tit for Tat

It is said that everything has a tit for tat. Humans wrapped nature into plastic by spreading plastic all over, Now it was eventually nature’s turn to give back and show its wrath which came to us humans in terms of COVID-19. Yes, Corona virus is that agent which connects the plastic game between the human and the environment.

Nature wrapped humans in plastic in the form of PPE (Personal protective equipment) kits. PPE, including goggles, face shields, masks, gloves, gowns, head and shoe covers are all made up of plastic. These add to the plastic waste in the environment which is destructive in every way.

 

LOOKING AT THE PROBLEM, WHAT CAN BE DONE NOW?

If you do not focus on solutions, you will be just lost in the problems                                                                                                           -Sadhguru

The 5R Formula

If one genuinely focuses all of his/her attention and energy in generating solutions to the plastic hazard in our country, then by all means we can together eradicate this menace from its roots. Some of the solutions that should be proposed further includes:-

  • 1) Eco-friendly materials such as reusable bags instead of plastic one.
  • 2) The best thing you can do is to use and carry a reusable metal bottle instead of plastic bottle which used once, go straight into the trash.
  • 3) Follow the “5-R” Formula to revolutionize the plastic problem which goes by Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Regenerate and Recover.
  • 4) Making people aware and spreading the word about this problem is another step which can’t be ignored at any cost.
  • 5) Choosing products which come with less plastic packaging and making valuable green choices are one of the granted methods which lead to a lot of difference.
