Why is it important to make wise choices?


Plastic Pollution: How many plastics have you thrown into the sea?


As a result of people not caring about the animals they are dying because of your dissenting and how you react. When you drop your rubbish pollution on the ground they would go into the grans and into the water and stay there while sea animals eat the plastic. They mistake food and eat them.


Look at the sea animals that have plastic inside them; they have croquet in or stuck their nose and end up on the beach. If they don't eat them it will stay there for a long time like a thousand years it won't go anywhere and still you stop dropping the rubbish.



You can stop this by don't dropping the plastic. You won't have a problem if you don't do this, so If you want to eat seafood that has rubbish. But if you're aware that this happens then you can help by don't dropping the rubbish.

Yesterday LS2 made a explanation about drugs and plastic pollution a dissuade to choice plastic pollution We started with with retclah question and started to write the story about it.I but powerful words in side the story. It shows people that they can change there mand and how think of forcing the plastic on the ground.
