A Summary of an Article. Kseniya Zhilina
Together with the growth of
the earth's population, the level of consumption inevitably increases. Every
day there are new products, technologies. All this leads to an increase in the
mass of waste produced by civilization. The problem of garbage, in particular, (P) its disposal, has become one of the most important for the world community. I've
been thinking about this and came across the article
that talks about innovative solutions to the plastic waste issue in India.
On
the Internet you can often find photos from India with huge piles of rubbish, and
if we look at the statistics we can find that every day, 15,000 tonnes of
plastic waste is generated in the country. From the article I learned that the
current situation has a negative impact not only on the general state of the
environment(,) but also on animals. Roaming cows can eat 30 kg of plastic and die
a slow and painful death. Chocolate wrappers, disposable cups and cellophane
packages litter ponds, parks and roadsides causing traffic jams and artificial
floods during the monsoon rains.
As stated in the article, in response to this problem a bengaluru (Sp) businessman developed an organic plastic bag made of tapioca and vegetable starches, which does not emit fumes and smell during combustion. Another advantage over the usual bag is that ART organic one dissolves in water only leaving it cloudy white. However, its most incredible quality is that the organic bag can be eaten and it will not cause any harm to the organism.
Despite all the advantages of this project, it faces many obstacles to enter into wide production. The point is, LINK WORD it can unnerve a thriving polymer industry that employs 4 million people. The government is inactive, and Ashwath Hegd receives daily calls with threats. However, he's not going to back down and says that his dream is to create a global brand.

Thus, although the problem of waste is gaining new momentum every year, by the example of Ashwath Hegd we can understand that even a single person's contribution can change a lot. I hope that through (prep) this article more people will be able to learn about the organic bags and replace plastic ones with them.

Also, usually summaries are much shorter because their purpose is to present the main ideas of the reading selection.
