“Plastic is a key element of day to day life right from the morning brush to the door knobs, electrical switches etc. Said Shri T. V .K Reddy, Additional Director General, Press Information Bureau in a press conference today in CGO Towers. He said Plastic is a useful component but the people due to their habits, have forced plastic to sound negative. If the demand for plastic increases, then there will be more technology, more employment opportunities and eventually growth of the society,” he added.
The Central Institute of Plastics Engineering & Technology is working towards plastic products that would decompose, says AVR Krishna, director and head of Central Institute of Plastics Engineering & Technology , Cherlapally. “There is a huge misconception in the minds of people about plastic. They have the concept that plastic should be banned. But it is because of the littering culture of people. The ultimate blame is put on plastic. CIPET is trying its best to create awareness and educate people about the need to recycle and reuse plastic items properly, besides focusing on ways to replace conventional plastics with biodegradable polymers. Vast opportunities available in healthcare, petro-chemical and transportation industries for the students in this field, he added.
