Plastic is a material that is really hard to recycle, and that takes a lot of time to disappear.
Plastic packaging is a very big problem, because it has terrible effects to the world, so we must make sustainable consumption choices such as : using reusable cutlery, canvas bags, bamboo straws, refillable bottles… If we do so, we will be able to mitigate the consequences of climate change.
Plastic single use items are a problem, especially small items like straws, bags, bottles and cutlery, because they are hard to recycle, and they take a lot of years to disappear. They create a lot of waste. To reduce this waste, use reusbable items.
There are 5 continents made of plastic all over the world.
Turtles think that the plastic bags are jellyfish, they eat those and die.
Also, in the plastic islands, the sea animals get trapped in plastic and finally die.
