Plastic Bottles As a group, we have decided that plastic water bottles are a horrific problem. Our challenge is to eliminate plastic water bottles for one month. Participates in this challenge will be encouraged to use reusable bottles versus single use bottles. Our purpose is to reduce the number of plastic bottles in the North Vancouver district, thus reducing demands on our local recycling depots. Each week, participates will be given a checklist that will monitor their progress and to ensure each participant is on the right track. Questions on the checklist will also monitor the participant’s awareness of plastic consumption. There will be a newsletter given to participates to notify and furthermore explain the challenge. These newsletters will include information about the challenge and how to take a part in this one-month challenge. Finally, there will be two videos that will explain about reusing and refusing. The other video will give participates a different way to better understand are monthly challenge. By the end of this monthly challenge, we would like the participants to have a greater understanding of how plastic water bottles have a huge negative impact on the world around us and how simple actions can make positive change. Why is this issue important? Plastic waste is an ongoing issue that has many negative impacts on the world. For instance, climate change, wildlife, economy, and our health are all affected by plastic consumption. In some parts of the world, the climate has drastically changed as a result of plastic abuse. An example of this is the toxic air in many developing countries where plastic is burned due to lack of recycling facilities. Wildlife is also majorly impacted by the abuse of plastic. Many harmless animals have been hugely affected by the overwhelming amount of plastic in the ocean. For example, sea turtles mistake plastic bags as jellyfish and are slowly dying from starvation. Whales, birds, and fish are also hugely affected. These animals are effected by ingesting micro plastic by thinking these items are food. Not only does the environment suffer, the economy also takes a huge hit. Plastic doesn’t magically disappear. Countries spend ridiculous amount of money on cleaning up and recycling these plastic bottles of which human’s dispose. With all of these plastic bottles going to recycling depots, the country is spending money on workers to be able to handle the volume of plastic being sent. A recent study showed that Canada is spending millions of dollars trying to correct the mistakes of people who are recycling incorrectly. Lastly, health is one of the major areas affected by plastic. Coming into contact with unclean or unsanitary plastic can have harmful effects on health. For example, plastic bottles that are left in the sun could put chemicals in everyday drinking water. A recent study found that major water bottle companies have trace amounts of micro plastics in their products. Not enough research has been done to show the long-term effects this may have on human health. So, if we don’t deal with it now, then when? Solution You don’t have to worry about the loads of plastic bottles that are thrown to the ocean and land each day, because you can help to prevent this situation. For this month’s challenge, we want to reduce the amount of plastic bottles that are harming our environment each day, by reusing and recycling. There are many easy actions that you can take in your community to reduce your consumption of plastic bottles. Such as:
To help you keep track of all the actions you have taken throughout this month, and also keep you on target, there is a score sheet that will help you record your behavior towards this project. On that score sheet, there are more ideas of actions that you may want to consider taking, and there a place for you to write down and keep track of some of the actions that you think are going to decrease the amount of our plastic waste. Each action you take has a set amount of points, and your goal is to get as many points as possible. We have also provided an informing notice for the parents and people at home, so they can be informed of this issue and what we are doing to help. This notice also challenges them to pack you a plastic-free lunch to help to have a plastic-free classroom. By the end of this month, we hope that you can see the difference between your behaviors towards plastic bottles in the beginning of the month verses the end, and continue to do these small eco-friendly actions in your daily life for a better environment.
