- Ahead of the World Environment Day on June 5, the environment ministry has banned plastics in all protected areas around the country, thus declaring them “plastic free zones”.
- India will host the World Environment Day this year.
- It's a symbolic initiative, as 'protected areas' cover only 5 percent of land area.
- Plastic consumption needs to be reduced at the source and production should be controlled to achieve a real reduction in plastic waste.
