Let us strive to reduce plastic bottle pollution

Plastic bottles are everywhere. That’s right! Everywhere you go, you see them. They are cheap. You don’t have to pay anything to get one with your drink and you don’t need a replacement to carry one home. They have made our lives convenient, why lie. There was a time when to buy a bottle of soda you had to go to the shop with a replacement bottle or be prepared to pay extra (deposit).

Well, plastic happened and those days are now well tucked away in distant memory. The millennials may not even be aware that we once lived through that era.
