Question

In groups of three carry out a research project about the use of plastic.

Answer

We should use plastic packaging because:

  • plastic helps store food hygienically, allowing food to remain fresh and so it avoids food waste
  • plastic can be reused and recycled
  • alternatives to plastic packaging are not very effective.

We should not use plastic packaging because:

  • plastic is harmful to wildlife
  • most plastic is made from non-renewable sources
  • plastic packaging contain harmful chemicals
  • plastic remains with us for a long time (plastic bags are not truly degradable and their small fragments pollute the environment)
