Can Plastic Be Banned? Students Take the Lead in a Green Revolution
In a time where plastic pollution threatens ecosystems, wildlife, and human health, the Universal School of Administration proudly takes an academic step forward to inspire solutions. Under the IQAC initiative, we are delighted to announce a special Paper Presentation Event on the critical theme:
“Can Plastic Be Banned?”
📅 Date: 31st July 2025
⏰ Time: 4:00 PM
📍 Venue: Seminar Hall 1
Why This Event Matters
Plastic pollution is one of the gravest environmental challenges of our times. From oceans choking with plastic debris to microplastics invading our food chain, the question we face is no longer if we should act—but how. This event invites students and faculty to critically engage with the question:
Is a plastic-free future possible—and if so, how can we make it happen?
Through rigorous paper presentations, the event will explore diverse perspectives on policy alternatives, technological innovations, community-led actions, and behavioral shifts that can help curb plastic usage.
