How does poulution affect Leatherback turtles?

Plastic bags are used every day to carry home shopping so that when they are finished with them they end up as rubbish in our bins. Some rubbish is carelessly dumped by roadsides in fields or on beaches however some rubbish is taken to landfill sites. Bags left on beaches end up in the sea which causes plastic bags to cause marine pollution. Plastic bags are made from oil. This causes plastic bags to take hundreds of years to decompose.
Plastic bags left on the beaches end up in the sea which causes marine pollution (rubbish in the sea). Ocean currents carry plastic bags to feeding grounds. Plastic bags look like jelly fish in the water which are the main source of food for Leather back turtles. Turtles eat the plastic because they think they are their food which results in the turtles stomach becoming blocked. Turtles starve to death. Consequently by 2030 Leatherback turtles will be extinct.

recycle

Reduce reuse recycle helps us to stop damaging the earth.
I learnt that people put lots of rubbish in the sea and then the sea animals eat it and they die. When people put there rubbish in the brown bin the rubbish goes to the dump and its bad because it gives the dump a horibble smell. Theres a rock that blows up. Trees are cut down and made out of chairs and lots of wooden things. It is bad because it is the animals habitats. Instead of putting our rubbish at the dump we could reuse it. I learn't that some adults call the dump landfill. There is somthing that stops the heat doing out the roof and that is called insulation . There is something called a play ground surface that goes under swings and stuff in parks to help you from herting your self. Trees can make seeds to grow flowers and more trees.

PLASTIC SOUP @ NMA

Yesterday at the National Marine Aquariums science lab, we had a picture of an animal and ours was a Albatross and we had to guess what was in his belly. We had to make a list of what we thought was inside, we thought there would be fish, meat, bread, flesh, water, blood and doughnuts. Next we had a bucket and that had all of the things that the bird actually had in his belly. We found out that an Albatross actually ate one squid two prawns, two fish, four milk bottle lids, thirty one pieces of plastic, thirty two pieces of rubbish thirteen lollipop sticks and two ropes. Next we had to pick them up with plastic gloves on and put them into the other tray. All we want to do is stop people throwing rubbish on the beach and make more people recycle their plastic.   People should get rid of their rubbish by recycling it.
