Green Is Good
Our planet is in danger. We need to STOP global warming. I know a way how. Stop using plastic bags in supermarkets. Our supermarkets already have some eco-friendly bags but I think we should use them all the time, instead of plastic.
Did you know we use 8 hundred million plastic bags a year and that’s only in New Zealand? Do you know what happens to the plastic? It will take three thousand years for it to disintegrate. But if we start using eco-friendly bags NOW we can help prevent global warming.
The good thing about having eco-friendly bags is that you can re-use them and they help the environment. Plastic bags have also been killing animals and even some crops are dying because plastic bags get stuck over the plants and the crops do not get the rain to live so they die. The animals are dying because they eat the plastic and stays in their digestive system until they die.
There is a solution to this problem. We can use paper bags so we can put them in the recycling. So remember when you go out to the supermarket go get an eco-friendly bag NOW and use it!!

We liked the way you made us think about using less plastic. We are trying hard to recycle at our school.
