RESEARCH PROJECT OF THE EFFICIENCY OF SMALLBUSINESS TO REDUCE THE PLASTIC BAGS BASED WASTESSTUDENT ID:STUDENT NAME:1

AbstractSmall business firms are coming forward to fight with the harmful impacts of plastic basedwastes generated pollution and debris created in environment which not only carries vector ofharmful diseases and but also releases harmful emissions of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) and otherharmful chlorinated gases in the atmosphere. But also it leads to blockage of drain ways andwaterways due to increased accumulation or over accumulation of plastic wastes and debris dueto inadvertence of people which lead to plastic based dumping of wastes in even around places ofhealth and Medicare and lead to severe water borne infectitious diseases which hurts humanityand its healthy existence.This entire research project highlights the judging of research hypotheses that does smallbusiness really play the key role in reducing the plastic bags use by substituting them withartificially made cardboards , papers and clothes which are on the other easily decomposable andbiodegradable and even recyclable as against that of plastics or polythenes.Our research hypotheses is tested positive that is based on the circumstances based outcomes inresults and findings it is seen that small businesses does have a valuable impact in terms ofreduction of plastic bags based wastes and their emissions to the requisite level or intensity.2

1. Introduction1.1 IntroductionOur research topic is based on the judgement of the role played by small business to reduce theplastic bags waste in terms of the harmful impact of plastic bags based wastes on theenvironment. Our topic focuses on the detailed illustration of the manner depicting the evilimpact of maximum usage of plastic bags on the environment in which we are living. Thedetrimental impacts are summed up in the literature review part.Additionally based on ourresearch objectives of the Problem faced due to the accumulation of plastic bags to the human society is also beinghighlighted in this research project. Not only this the research project tests the hypothesis thatwhether the small business does really help in kerbing the ill effects of plastic bags and theiraccumulation as waste products in the society and how does it benefit in reducing various typesof environmental degradation in an efficient and instrumental manner or mode. The introductorypart puts before us some objectives and some questions based on our objectives that by what,how and which manner does the small business reduce plastic bags based wastes and how far itis useful to the society.This is done in the effective and instrumental manner respectively. 1.2 Background of the topic Our topic is based on the ideology of environmental pollution and measures to eradicate thesame through useful tools and policies adopted by the small business organisations. In themodern globalised world, small business does play a key role in reducing the intensity of largebusiness generated plastic bags and baggage by replacing them with other materials of artificiallydesigned paper bags or related goods which are an effective feature to reduce soil pollution inample amount in a very efficient and systematic way. By doing the analysis the project alsohighlights on various adversities of plastic bags on the environment based on soil, water and airrespectively in all terms and conditions.1.3 Aim of the study The aim of our study to judge the validity of the statement that small business helps to reduce theplastic bags wastes based emissions in a sound and precise manner based on various good bonus6

and benefits or advantages of doing small businesses which ultimately will cater to ecologicalwelfare in terms of pollution reduction of the surroundings in and around human beings habitatsor places where they thrive or exists.The health aspect of humans is the primary cause of theanalysis of judging whether the small business enterprises are really influential in reducing theuse of plastic bags in more than much of an abundant manner.1.4 Objectives The main objectives of our research work can be mentioned as follows:1.To understand the detrimental impact of increased use of plastic bags on environment whichare mainly used by consumers and producers for purchase and sales of goods2. To understand the role played by small business in reducing plastic bags usage by which smallbusiness firms in and around the world aids in reducing polyethene based emissions 3.To understand the measures taken by small business in reducing the plastic bags usage.atdifferent periods of business cycles for minimisation of polyethene or plastics usage in markets 4. To understand the efficiency level of small business in terms of welfare by curtailing increaseduse of plastic bags wastes focusing on the strength of small businesses to reduce plastic bags use.1.5 Research questions The research questions are as follows:1. What is the detrimental impact of polyethene or plastic bags on the human society and how farand in what way or manner does it hurts the ecological fabric of human surroundings in bothintensity and nature based impacts?2. What is the pioneering role played by small business enterprises in reducing the usage ofpolythene bags in an intense manner for the sake of reduction of polyethene based soil, water andair pollution? 3.What are the particular measures adopted by small businesses in eradicating increased usage ofplastic bags?4. How far are the small business firms efficient in reducing or minimising the harmful effects ofincreased use of plastic bags in the society?7

1.6 Research hypothesisThe research hypothesis can be split into two parts in terms of the interest of researchers and theyare as follows:Null hypothesis: H0=0 (This hypothesis states that there is null impact of role played by smallbusiness in reducing the use of plastic bags in sound manner)Alternative hypothesis: H1≠0(This hypothesis states that there is strong impact of measurestaken by small business in reduction of plastic bags wastes and its evils)1.7 Research rationale The rationale of our is totally based on the intuition that the polyethene articles or plastic bagscause an adverse impact on environmental health standards by catering to air, water and soilpollution respectively and hence the pioneering role played by the small business firms inreducing its-its usage should be justified through various theories and concepts. The rationale isalso based on the testing of the intensity of reduction of plastic bags usage by the measures ofsmall business enterprises.1.8 SummaryIn the summary, it can be said that the elements of introductory analysis of our research projectbased on the efficiency of small business enterprises in the instrumental reduction of plastic bagsusage are highlighted in a systematic and sound manner respectively.
