WALT: write an explanation.
We have been learning about environmental problems then we got to write an explanation about the problem.
This is my explanation.
Did you know that 22 billion water bottles are wasted every year?
When these plastic bottles go into the ocean they release toxic chemicals like BPA that can cause diseases and hormone cancer. This is a massive problem but there are solutions…
These plastic bottles harm sea animals and a lot of sea animals die from getting stuck in the plastic or eating it. As each bottle decomposes it leaks damaging chemicals into our environment.
The majority of plastic bottles get released into the ocean, the chemicals from these bottles cause diseases that are released into the ocean.
Plastic bottles are awful for our environment but metal bottles can be reused and washed. Metal bottles dont get put into the ocean. They can be recycled or taken to the landfill.
This is a massive issue hurting the planet. Using metal bottles will help our environment.
Metal bottles will help save more sea animals and will stop plastic from going into our ocean.
