Act against polluting brands - only way

In a global plastic audit spanning 42 countries and six continents, Coca-Cola was found to be the top polluter with Coke-branded plastic pollution found in 40 countries.

Coca-Cola, PepsiCo, and Nestlé were declared the most frequent companies identified in 239 cleanups and brand audits, by the Break Free From Plastic, a global movement envisioning a future free from plastic pollution.

Coca-Cola, PepsiCo, Nestlé, Danone, Mondelez International, Procter & Gamble, Unilever, Perfetti van Melle, Mars Incorporated, and Colgate-Palmolive were the most frequent multinational brands collected in cleanups, in that order.

Can't India act against these companies. Either get them to use environment friendly packaging or stop the product sales or recycle atleast 50% of what they sell through collection of waste.

Good suggestion - let us use environment friendly packaging or stop the product sales or recycle atleast 50% of what they sell through collection of waste. more  
The idea expressed by Ms Anushka Singh is welcome. The govt should make laws in this regards to enable the concerned authorities to take appropriate action. more  
Ban plastic for all food and beverage products, producer should be made responsible to take back and recycle, increase recycling plants more  
Very interesting. In Sankara TV in our house, only advertisement is coming for the past half an hour. Hanuman Chalisa and other programs ate blocked. The Chamchas are afraid of Hanuman, I presume. more
