No Plastic, No Pollution is the AumSum mantra.

As compared to organic waste, it takes hundreds of years to decompose.

But, if the quantity of swallowed plastic is small.

Our body pushes out the materials which it cannot digest.

Problems might occur if the quantity of swallowed plastic is large.

Our body will not be able to push it out.

It will stay in our gut and might partially prevent further food digestion.

In extreme cases, this may also prove to be fatal.

These chemicals are commonly known as phthalates.

They are used to make plastics more flexible.

Transparent, hard to break as well as to increase their longevity.

Phthalates are extremely harmful to our body.

They can damage our liver, kidneys, lungs and reproductive system.

How do you know the secret of my Beautiful looks?

Firstly, due to accumulation of bacteria & dead skin cells.

We will start giving off extreme body odor.

Eventually, our outer skin layer will become so thick.

That we will develop a skin condition called Hyperkeratosis.

Dandruff will have a party every day, giving us an extremely itchy head.

Dirt, pollutants and bacteria would stick to the oil secreted by our skin.

This will definite-ly make us look weird.

Lastly, sebum will get accumulated on our skin and clog our skin pores.

Leading to inflammation of hair follicles and eventually resulting in acne.

Some experts believe that we don't need to shower every day.

They believe that too much showering can remove.

Helpful organisms which actually protect us from harmful germs.

Sugar stimulates the release of feel-good chemicals like dopamine.

So, sudden cutting down of sugar can cause sugar withdrawal.

Thus leading to anxiety, mood swings, etc.

However, the most obvious benefits of avoiding sugar would be weight loss.

Improved oral health and reduced risk of diabetes.

Secondly, sugar also triggers the process of glycation.

In which harmful compounds called AGEs are released.

These AGEs attach to collagen and elastin in our skin.

Thirdly, studies have shown that excess sugar causes inflammation.

So, giving up on sugary foods may prevent acne.

Fourthly, avoiding sugar can also reduce the risk of Alzheimer's.

A chemical called BDNF forms new connections and new memories.

According to research, excess sugar is linked to drop in the BDNF level.

There are about 3 Trillion trees on earth right now.

So planting a trillion trees would increase that number by 33%.

For earth as well as all the living things.

But this will not immediately solve the climate change problem.

Firstly, freeing up so much land for planting trees seems like a mammoth task.

Secondly, these trees would take a number of years to grow big enough.

To make any meaningful contribution towards reducing carbon dioxide from air.

Thirdly, if we do nothing about emissions.

And keep on adding carbon dioxide to the atmosphere Then by the time trees grow.

We would have added more than 1 Trillion tons of carbon dioxide.

Thus nullifying the effects of these trees.

So, plantation of trees plus cut in emissions are the need of the hour.
