Generation Plastic | Plastic on the Ganges

[Music] Hey, [Music] but it has changed now. Everything has changed. [Music] We used to make everything, like our tools, plates, and cups out of natural materials, but now everything is plastic. [Music] All of this dirtiness is coming from the garbage. It doesn't go away, it's harmful for your body and to everyone else. When animals drink the water, it's harmful for them as well. That's why it's important to stop it. [Music] [Music] A lot of the fish die and float to the surface of the river. [Music] I don't know where the water comes from, but it's so dirty we can't even wash our hands. Pieces of plastic and trash float in our water. The Ganges is supposed to be clean, but here it is dirty. [Music]

It feels terrible living like this. The trash smells awful. There are lots of mosquitoes circling our home, and our children get sick. [Music] The plastic products at the market come from the outside. What can we do about it? If they are only selling products with plastic, what can we do when the market stops selling it? That's how we can stop using plastic. Our idea is that we should collect all the plastic trash and take it outside of our village, making one spot to collect it and then let the trash collectors come and take it away to process it. But no one comes to collect it. It's all still here. Even though the government is banning plastic, it is hard to execute. There is a lot that needs to be improved and fixed. There is cleaning work that has to be done around the Ganges, which is important, and we want to support it. We can live without plastic. [Music] You.
