We were shocked to learn that plastic can take up to 1000 years to break down! A lot of plastic ends up in waterways which flow to the oceans. Thousands of sea birds and marine life are killed every year by getting caught in plastic or eating it.
We put these facts into a pamplet and gave suggestions of how to re-use plastic bags.
I am VERY impressed with the pamphlet you made about plastic bags. It was such a good idea to deliver them to people in our community, which is part of 'taking action' when you've learnt about something really important. I hope people will take notice of all the great points you made about how plastic bags damage our environment.
