The aim and tasks of the project
The aim is to study

and describe the problem of plastic pollution.
Tasks are:
to find out the main reasons of plastic pollution,
to search out the effects of the issue,
to learn the solutions to this problem.

Слайд 3

As the world’s population continues to grow, so does the amount

of garbage that people produce. Plastic is an incredibly useful material, but it is also made from toxic compounds known to cause illness, and it is not biodegradable. So, using plastic in our daily life has become a serious problem. The governments of many countries are trying to solve it these days.

Слайд 4

While solving the problem of plastic pollution may seem as easy

as just recycling or cleaning up empty bottles, the truth is that the plastic causing the pollution can range in size from big to microscopic.

Слайд 5

Even recycling doesn’t cut down on plastic, as it essentially uses

the existing plastic, although, in a new form.

The major contributors to this problem today include:

1. Plain Old Trash 2. Overusing of Plastic 3. Disposing of Plastic and Garbage

Слайд 11

To sum up, we should remember that because plastic doesn’t break

down easily (if ever), recycling plastic means that it is still plastic, just being used for a different purpose. Therefore, you’re not actually reducing plastic amounts or exposure, even in the recycling process.
