INTERNATIONAL PLASTIC BAG
FREE DAY
United World School celebrated International Plastic Bag free day by making Plastic Alternate Bags. Plastic
pollution is a global catastrophe and sadly it is a man-made one. One can easily link it with the following SDG's.
SDG 3: Good health and well-being, SDG 6: Clean water and sanitation, SDG 11: Sustainable cities and
communities, SDG 12: Responsible consumption and production, SDG 13: Climate action, DG 14: Life below water
(protection of the seas and oceans), SDG 15: Life on land
In order to create an awareness about its devastating effects, the students were given an asynchronous task of
creating PAPER BAGS and were told about the benefits of using plastic alternatives like CLOTH, JUTE or PAPER
BAGS.
