Actually, when you dispose the plastics then these plastic either get into the soil and contaminates the soil with the chemicals in it or the plastic end up in the water bodies like lakes, ponds, rivers and ultimately harming marine wildlife. In either way, the plastic does immense harm to the earth. There are bamboo ear buds available in the market which can buy easily. We all should understand there is urgent need to shift to bamboo and other eco-friendly products otherwise the harmful effects will simply rise and will be out of our control.

If you have finished drinking what was there inside, then , reuse that bottle by keeping water or in some other ways. You can use reuse clothes of your family members (obviously after washing). Instead of just dumping, you can give them to poor people. You can buy reusable cotton pads, make up remover pads which you can reuse for many times. You can use them in your facial cleansing and in your daily beauty routine. You can easily wash them and reuse and also can carry with you outside.
