    According to some, manufacturers and supermarkets are responsible for reducing the amount of plastic wrapping used to package goods, while others argue that consumers should avoid purchasing goods bundled excessively. Personally, I believe that the obligation should be placed on customers to avoid purchasing goods that come in a lot of packaging.

    On the one hand, Excessive packaging of goods is the responsibility of producers and sellers. One reason for this is to ensure the goods’ hygiene and lifespan. For instance, perishable items such as fruits are extensively wrapped to maintain their freshness, even though in the past, when packaging was not as sophisticated, items and things also maintained a high level of quality qnd The primary factor that retailers and manufacturers bear responsibility is that many consumers are unaware of the dangerous effects of the packing materials used As a result, they are more likely to acquire what the marketers are selling, so jeopardising their health. Manufacturers and retailers should always aim to use recyclable, biodegradable packaging to maintain a consistent amount of packing without jeopardising anyone’s health.

    Individuals, on the other hand, have a responsibility to safeguard the environment from further degradation and pollution by limiting their usage of non-biodegradable products. By boycotting items from companies that are not ecologically responsible, consumers can exert pressure on these corporations to change their stance on the packaging materials they employ. As a result, businesses will be compelled to practise greater environmental stewardship by altering and lowering product packaging. Consumers have the power to effect change, but they must act collectively to do so.

    Inconclusion, While there is no arguing that the invention of packing material has had a detrimental effect on many lives rather than a beneficial one, the only rational approach to convince supermarkets and manufactures to modify their packaging policy is to apply consumer pressure to their bottom lines. If buyers make a concerted effort to avoid heavily packed products in favour of more environmentally friendly alternatives, this will result in a paradigm shift about the environmental impact of plastics.
