Maharashtra became the first state to introduce the Plastic Buyback Scheme considering the impudent use of plastic in the country. This scheme states that everytime a person deposits a milk pouch, he/she will get 0.50 paisa and Rs. 2 for a PET bottle having a capacity of 200 ml or more. The implementation of this scheme will not only benefit the environment but also instill a habit of donating plastic among people. The plastic so collected will be recycled or reused by the government.
