Plastic Pledge



For some time, New Zealands beaches have become dump grounds. There is so much waste. Also almost 80% of the waste is plastic items. So Countdown has made a decision to stop giving out plastic bags. I think that is a great idea because that will reduce the amount of plastic. I asked my Mum and she also agrees, she says that we should bring our own bags.

  1. Hello Chris! I also think going plastic bag free for countdown is a great idea and will be quite effective and helpful. It will be a smart idea to bring your own bags going shopping to countdown because it's something my family has been doing for a while. What else do you think will help reduce the amount of rubbish on land? Keep it up!

  2. Hey Chris,

    Yourself, your Mum and I are all in agreement here. Good on Countdown for stopping this and for helping reduce plastic in our world!! I wonder why people didn't do it sooner? Can you think of any good uses for plastic bags?

  3. Hi Chris,
    Great job on completing this activity! I agree with your Mum, I too believe that the less plastic we have the less danger it poses to wildlife. I didn't know that 80% of our rubbish is plastic, but it just shows how much we use it. Do you use plastic bags when you go shopping?

  4. Hello Chris,

    Well done for completing this task. I am glad to see you posting these SLJ activities. Did you enjoy finishing this activity? Why? I did this activity too. It was very fun to complete. The image of the plastic bags are great. I like it. Yes we should bring our own bags to shopping, because sometimes they run out of bags and we have nothing to use. Especially people who do big shopping.

    NICE:)
