This week Mrs Jack´s literacy group´s have been learning about sustainability.We used our prior knowledge for what we knew about sustainability. I got to read my writing at hero assembly. I found it easy when we talk about what we knew about it. I found it hard to draw the drawing because I could only use shapes.
Would you ever eat a plastic bag? I wouldn't either.
I strongly believe that everyone should ban the plastic bag.
Firstly it kills up to 100,000 marine animals. Mostly whales, seals and turtles. They eat the plastic bags or get tangled in plastic bags.
Secondly plastic bags are made out of petroleum. Petroleum is poisonous and it is used to make one plastic bag it would be enough to power a car 115 metres. The petroleum used to make one plastic bag would power a car for 115m
Finally the average lifespan of plastic bag is 7 minutes and it take 500 years to break down. That is a really long time to find one. Why would you try and find one when you can use a different bag.
In conclusion I strongly believe we need to ban that bag because if we do not now, in 2050 there will be more plastic in the ocean instead of fish.
