Personal Behaviour
Personal behaviour refers to changing our buying decisions and daily habits. Some are simple such as using reusable bags and avoiding plastic straws and coffee cups, but others are more creative. For instance, many items bought at the grocery store such as yogurt, hummus, and bread can be made at home, if you have the time and the resources. If that isn’t a reality for you, look for products that come with less packaging. Not only does this cut down on plastic packaging, but it provides fresh, delicious and nutritious food for you and your family.
Education
Teaching others about the importance of preserving clean water and how to reduce plastic is a highly necessary element of mass change. Educate family, friends, coworkers, and everyone you know on ways to reduce and eliminate plastic. Identify areas where plastic is being used unnecessarily in your home or office and encourage those involved to either eliminate or switch to a reusable alternative. Many people are simply unaware of the effects of their daily plastic habits; bringing about this awareness is the first step toward change.
If you finish your solution paragraph early, you will create an information poster giving detailed information about how we can help either solve or prevent the Great Pacific Garbage Patch from getting bigger!
Think about the information poster you made telling us about the G.P.G.P, remember to use a clear font for both your writing and title.
