Where we are busy in Instagram scrolling down the cutie kittens, watching our favorites there are some serious problems to be addressed also. Pollution, the number one problem of today. Specifically, pollution caused by plastic is the most spreading and dangerous. Most of us do not hesitate to think of an empty tin as a football. Bottle’s cover as our toss coin. But there are some other people around who tell that only we are responsible for this pollution. We can clean this mess up.
Instagram account “Peterpicksuptrash” portrays the importance of cleanliness. He posts photos of trash that he picks from his surroundings. Every image has a message which clearly says that clean the trash up.
Bored panda approached Peter. He was asked about his habit. He replied that he got this habit about 2 years back. He used to go for lunch. He mostly passed by litter at every inch. Most of other people also walked on that trash. Then one day i thought to dispose this trash. Handful of trash at a time.

Little deeds of kindness
Little words of love
Make this earth an Eden

According to our world in data article published in 2018, by 2015 “the world had produced 7.8 billion tonnes of plastic”, which is more than one tonne of plastic for every person currently alive. The big problem with plastics, compared to other materials, is that it takes a long time (some plastic items can take up to 1000 years) to degrade. And according to data, by 2015 around 55% of global plastic waste was discarded, while 25% was incinerated, and only 20% recycled.
