  • Recycling plastic means that the plastic is reused to make more plastic things. This saves energy and stops the litter of plastic which is destroying killing birds and animals, especially marine animals.
  • Landfills are full of discarded plastic bottles. Many cities are running out of suitable places to store their garbage. We have to stop this.
  • Many plastic bottles float out to sea where they break down into smaller pieces. Birds, turtles and fish eat these pieces of plastic and die.
