Respuesta :

I’ll give it my best shot!:

There are so many things that harm this planet; one of them being plastic trash. For one, plastic trash pollutes over 80 percent of the world’s oceans. 60 to around 80 percent of that waste being plastic trash. Just think about everything that is being effected by it such as animals, plants, and humans who have to suffer from it. Many people think there are no alternatives to this non-deteriorating debris, but there really is! For example, instead of using an ordinary disposable cup that’s going to be thrown away after one use, try to get a dishwasher safe cup that can be washed and used multiple times. That way, you’re helping to reduce the number of plastic waste that ends up in huge landfills. A further alternative would be to start using glass more. You could even make it mandatory to recycle. All in all, plastic utensils and items are not a necessity and overall are doing more harm than good. Next time you use something plastic that’s going to end up being thrown away, try to think about where it might end up and what damage it’s going to cause to the environment. Remember, we only have one Earth, so we need to take care of it!

Hope this helps! :)
