Why is it important to make wise choices?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Did you know when you litter around the sea, plastic is going to the ocean and creates pollution in the sea? Due to our careless actions these marine animals have been suffering from plastic, most of the time they mistake plastic for their lunch as a result the marine animals will start to get sick or most of the time even die. Most of the plastic that ends up on our grounds then goes into the drains, which then drifts slowly to our oceans, lakes and rivers. Every day around 8 million pieces of plastic makes their way into our oceans.
Would you like to be a sea animal tangled in plastic and not be able to digest food? Plastic doesn’t actually fully degrade, it only disintegrates into smaller particles. There are now 5.25 trillion micro and macro pieces of plastic in our ocean, and 46 thousand pieces in every square mile of ocean weighs around 269 thousand tonnes. About 252,000 tons of plastic are also headed into our landfills every year. The more people fill the ocean with plastic, the less marine animals we’ll have. The generation of sea animals will be gone and the ocean will be filled with plastic rubbish. You can help stop this by collecting all the plastic you see laying around. Different different things that are affected by the pollution are Global Warming, Climate Change, Acid Rain, Smog effect, Deterioration of fields, Extinction of animal species and Respiratory health problems.
What would you do if you saw a marine animal with plastic in its throat or plastic stuck around its neck which stops it from eating. There are seven different types of pollution: air, water, land, radioactive, thermal, light, and sound pollution. Because of our selfish ways the marine animals in our ocean will soon be extinct like the dinosaurs if we don’t do something about the pollution in our waterways. 700 marine species are affected by the damage caused by plastic pollution. A way we can stop this problem is by picking up rubbish whenever you can. Pollution also affects the marine ecosystems which is pretty bad.
Another We can help get rid of this problem by picking up rubbish even if it isn’t yours to save animals and the environment then maybe we can keep the marine animals safe and healthy, but if you don’t the marine animals in our oceans they will die.

L.I: To simply write an explanation.
This week for writing we created a explanation about any topic. The topic that I chose to make an explanation out of was pollution. Pollution is a big disaster which is causing the marine species to get lower and lower, and it needs to stop. I liked to make this explanation because pollution was a fun write about. My explanation explains why it is important to make wise choices.
