Stop using plastic

This is my speech I hope you like it.
Have you ever wondered where plastic goes after you’ve
Finished using it, does it go to the moon? The sun? I don't think so, I am christine and i would like to talk about how we can stop using plastic.

    1
I think plastic goes to the oceans which i like to swim and play in. What would you think if 1,000 dirty bits of plastic was floating around you while you swam. I wouldn't like swimming in it that, that would be gross and I think you wouldn’t either. Here are some interesting facts about plastic and how we can stop using it.    2
  • Firstly, 46,000 pieces of plastic is floating in each square mile of the world's oceans, Turtles,dolphins,and whales can choke or starve by confusing plastic bags for jellyfish.
  • Secondly, here’s a tip to stop so much plastic getting into our oceans. Avoid buying items packaged in plastic and bring a reusable cloth bag when shopping. If you order coffee bring a reusable mug and say “No straw please”.
  • Thirdly, If you really need to use plastic use it over and over again so it won't be a waste, for example you can reuse a plastic zip lock bag to make it your waterproof holder for your phone. You can use coloured caps from plastic bottles and glue them in your paper to make art

  • Thirdly, If you really need to use plastic use it over and over again so it won't be a waste, for example you can reuse a plastic zip lock bag to make it your waterproof holder for your phone. You can use coloured caps from plastic bottles and glue them in your paper to make art

  • Lastly, plastic decompomposes up to 200 to 1000 years after it is thrown away. Only 6.5 percent of plastic is recycled and 7.7 percent is used in energy facilities. All the plastic that's left goes in the ocean,why don't supermarket shops use cloth bags to put in groceries and only use plastic on saturday's and sunday to lessen plastic.
If we keep using plastic our oceans might be covered by plastic all over. So I strongly believe if we stop using plastic, or cut down on using plastic,  our oceans can be swam and play on.

THANK YOU FOR LISTENING TO MY SPEECH
