No Harmful Plastic!

 

We all know how harmful plastic is. We try to avoid it and limit its usage, because it can cause a threat not only to people, but also to fish and other aquatic organisms.

Together with the children attending the after school club from class 2B, we talked about how polluted rivers, seas and oceans are. Thinking about the water, we often see garbage dumped by the shore, floating plastic bottles and plastic bags. Children know the dangers of throwing garbage into the water, how much fish and the entire underwater world suffer from it. By making posters, we wanted to show the difference between a clean and dirty underwater world. Clean - beautiful, colourful with healthy fish. It is not contaminated at all. Dirty - gray, gloomy, showing tons of rubbish and sick fish. Land-based garbage ends up in rivers, seas and oceans in huge amounts. Plastic not only litter the coasts, but also harm marine animals. Some treat it as food, others get tangled up in plastic garbage. Both are unable to survive it. According to experts, in a dozen or so years there will be more plastic in the seas and oceans than fish. Every year, up to 8 million tons of plastic are used there.

We don't want tons of rubbish lying under the water destroying this beautiful world. Therefore, we hope that our posters will inspire you to reflect on throwing rubbish into the water.
