Plastic pollution floats on the surface of the murky waters. \u003cbr/\u003e              Environmental activists say many rivers across India have become dirtier as the country's economy develops, with city sewage, farming pesticides and industrial effluents freely flowing into waterways despite laws against polluting.\u003cbr/\u003e              India's Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), which monitors pollution, said in its 2015 report that as many as 60 Indian cities generate about 4,059 tonnes of plastic waste per day. \u003cbr/\u003e              But for some, plastic bottles and other trash that floats down the Yamuna, is actually the only means of earning a living. Garbage collectors, who live in makeshift huts around the polluted river, spend hours picking bottles, pieces of metal, and other trash, out of the river so they can recycle it to make some money. \u003cbr/\u003e              40-year-old Ram Nath says he has lived by the river for 25 years and is able to feed his family with $2- $4 that he makes from recycling plastic bottles every day. \u003cbr/\u003e              \"I keep picking out trash and other things out of the Yamuna and it keeps getting slightly cleaner. That is the only work we have, what else? Our life is to row these oars so that we are able to make a living. I make about 100 to 200 rupees ($2- $4) and that puts food on my table. What else can I do?\"\u003cbr/\u003e              Despite several bans on use of plastic bags in New Delhi, and other states of India, they are present everywhere from shops to farmer's markets. \u003cbr/\u003e              Though this vegetable seller can be fined upto $75 for using plastic bags of less than 50 microns thickness, he is not worried as everybody is still using them. \u003cbr/\u003e              Only a handful of his customers bring their own bags. \u003cbr/\u003e              Some experts say many Indians are still not aware of how harmful single-use plastics can be for the environment. \u003cbr/\u003e              \"All these products which we use because of convenience take a lot of… many, many hundreds of years to dispose-off,\" says Chitra Mukherjee, an environmental expert who runs a research and action group called Chintan in New Delhi. \"Like a plastic throwaway will probably take you 500 years. So you actually are creating waste which is going to live far longer than you. And even when, after 500 years, they could photodegrade, but that doesn't mean they disappear. They just become microplastics, which are actually even more harmful.\" \u003cbr/\u003e              Waste tips in and around the nation's capital have become a grim and smelly reminder of how difficult it is to get rid of plastic trash. \u003cbr/\u003e              The government is trying to put the onus on the citizens. \u003cbr/\u003e              Harsh Vardhan, the Indian Minister for Environment, Forest and Climate Change, says \"When the society will demand a jute bag instead, or take a jute bag with them when they leave their homes (to go shopping), then automatically the movement of these plastic bags will die its own death.\" \u003cbr/\u003e              Entrepreneurs in India are realizing that the usually price-sensitive Indian market is slowly opening up for biodegradable alternatives to plastic products, even though they are slightly more expensive.   \u003cbr/\u003e              Amardeep Bardhan is a co-founder of Prakritii, a firm manufacturing eco-friendly dinnerware made out of leaves of the Areca Nut plant found in Southern India. \u003cbr/\u003e              The plateware, which has the feel of thick paper plates, biodegrades in seven to ten days, he said. The company doesn’t harvest any palm trees, but waits for leaves to fall to the ground. \u003cbr/\u003e              \"The leaves, we only collect it when it falls from the trees. After it falls, we get it collected and then we process it. We do not pluck the leaves from the trees,\" Bardhan says. \"And in the final way, we get these shapes. So in this entire process, we are not harming the environment, we are not harming the trees, we are not cutting down any of the plantation. Then at the end of the day when you consume your food in this, you put it in a compost pit, and it biodegrades in maximum seven to ten days. And that's how we are generating something from the waste, people are loving it, and then it goes back as a waste.\" \u003cbr/\u003e              While Prakritii initially made most of its income from exports to Europe and the U.S., Bardhan says the market for eco-friendly products is growing in India, especially among younger people who value quality over price. \u003cbr/\u003e              His company generates more than $150,000 in revenue each year. \u003cbr/\u003e              And it seems like the trend is definitely catching on. \u003cbr/\u003e              Some high-end restaurants in the city are doing away with plastic straws and replacing them with environment-friendly paper straws. \u003cbr/\u003e              That’s largely because of Aditya Mukarji, a student who launched his campaign after seeing a video of two veterinarians trying to remove a plastic straw from a turtle’s nose. \u003cbr/\u003e              \"This paper straw is actually better than a plastic straw as it is biodegradable,\" says explains Mukarji, the campaigning school boy, \"It is firmer than a plastic straw. A plastic can bend, but this doesn't bend. It won't unravel for up to three hours in a drink, so one can actually finish their drink and it will be fine.\" \u003cbr/\u003e              According to Mukarji, his efforts have lead to the replacement of at least 500,000 plastic straws with their paper alternative around New Delhi, and hopes more children will join his campaign. \u003cbr/\u003e              With more than 15 million people, New Delhi and its surrounding cities produce an estimated 17,000 tons of trash daily, according to Indian officials and environmentalists. \u003cbr/\u003e              Whether India hosting the World Environment Day will help it reduce its plastic pollution is difficult to say, but Mukherjee says, it is definitely a step in the right direction. \u003cbr/\u003e              \"I think it is great that we are hosting the World Environment Day and it is great that we are talking beat plastic pollution. So, I think for the first time, everyone around us is now aware, people in India are aware that plastics is (sic) a problem. I think that itself is the most important thing that we could achieve out of this.\" \u003cbr/\u003e              If nothing else, India hosting the World Environment Day has made environmental protection a hot topic _ at least briefly _ in a country where trash is everywhere. Tuesday will see numerous official environmental gatherings across India, clean up campaigns along the Yamuna and mall food courts agreeing to forgo plastic plateware for one day. \u003cbr/\u003e              The hope is that everything doesn’t go back to normal on Wednesday.\u003cbr/\u003e            \u003cbr/\u003e\u003cbr/\u003e              New Delhi - 25 May 2018\u003cbr/\u003e              1.
