View my photo essay about plastic.
This presentation shows what happens with the improper discard of plastic. Many plastic products are designed for single-use such as water bottles, straws, and grocery bags. There is too much plastic that ends up in the ocean which causes harm to marine life. I have included some solutions that can help reduce the use of plastic we use on a daily basis.

I have never seen a photo essay before, so this was very interesting to me. I like that through the pictures you chose, a clear message was given. I agree that plastic waste is a huge threat to both humans and animals. I think that every person is capable of making a change that can impact the world. I personally use a refillable water bottle all the time. I haven’t used a plastic water bottle in months. This is beneficial to both me and the planet, because I am helping reduce my plastic usage, and I am able to save money and drink more water using my water bottle. I think that this is an important topic more people should consider because small choices can lead to habits, I don’t go anywhere without my water bottle now.

Hi Emily,
This is a pretty neat way to present a topic, I have never seen this type of presentation. Wow, I will never look at products in disposable plastic containers in the grocery store the same way. There is so much pollution out there and we are a big part of the problem. It is interesting how much products have changed over the years to make our lives simpler. It is very sad to see such damage to our environment. It is nice to see you are very aware of the problem and want to be part of the change. Nice work!
