About us

By Manjeet

Hi there, and welcome to Plastic Buster!

I started this blog because, like many of you, I became deeply concerned about the damage plastic pollution is causing to our planet. From beaches littered with bottles to animals suffering from microplastics, I realized that this issue isn't just someone else’s problem — it’s ours too. I created this space to learn, share, and grow together toward a more sustainable lifestyle.

What’s This Blog All About?
Plastic Buster is here to spread awareness in a simple and honest way. I share facts, tips, and real stories about how plastic is harming our environment — and more importantly, what we can do about it. Whether you're just starting your eco-friendly journey or already living plastic-free, there’s something here for you.

Why It Matters to Me
This isn’t just a blog — it’s a small step toward a bigger change. I believe that even tiny actions, when done together, can make a real difference.

Let’s Do This Together
I’d love for you to join me on this journey. Read the posts, share them, and try out a few tips. Together, we can make better choices — and maybe even inspire others to do the same.

Thanks for being here 🌿
