Plastic and the Environment
Plastic is a material we use every day. The first plastics were made more than 100 years ago from parts of plants. Plastics are now made from oil, coal and natural gas. We are (61)…………..up these things so fast (62)…………..the Earth’s supplies may run out. Because of this, scientists are investigating new ideas for making plastics from plants such as sweet potato, bamboo and flax.
Things made from plastic can be useful for people (63)…………..bad for the planet. Some plastics can last for a long time (64)…………..wearing out, and can be difficult to get rid of when they are not needed. They can remain in rubbish dumps called landfill sites for hundreds of years. Landfills can be smelly, ugly and harmful (65) …………..our planet.
Recycling is a good way to get rid of unwanted plastics. Recycled waste materials can be used (66)…………..to make new products. This can be difficult as different types of plastic need to be recycled in different ways. Some kinds of plastics can be (67)…………..down and used to make new things such as bags and bottles. Others can be made into fibres for clothing.
Another way to protect the environment is to use canvas bags for shopping rather than plastic ones. A lot of plastic objects can also be reused. Plastic bottles can be refilled many (68)………….., rather than throwing them away (69)…………..they are empty. Unwanted plastics goods such as CDs and toys can be sold or (70)…………..away to charity shops.
