I don’t think this video needs much introduction, but here in Delhi, streets littered with plastic bags, sacred cows dying stomachs full of plastic from eating garbage, sewage and stormwater drains blocked with bags, and several failed national plastic bag bans, this campaign couldn’t come soon enough. lessplasticmorelife.org

Cities around India have banned the thinnest plastic bags and more corporates, malls, and even the Indian Youth Climate Network member universities, have started “Banning the Bag”.
