Plastic Water Bottles Ruining The Environment!
Blogged by: Kaylah. R
Throughout my Inquiry I have been focusing on the negative effects of plastic water bottles on the environment. Something that could help encourage the people to change the environment is to let them bring in their own reusable water bottles into recreational places like theatres. I would like to change the rule of no reusable water bottles in the Terra Theatre. Currently they only sell plastic water bottles in the theatre and prevent the use of reusables, the reasoning is of course for more money. I think that a small theatre like Terra should change this rule because it helps our community and it could encourage other theatres to change their rule too.
There are definitely a lot of positive and negative effects of plastic water bottles, but the main problem with them is the disposal. Plastic water bottles can take up to 700 years to begin composting. Toronto alone consumes an estimated 100 million bottles a year, imagine how many need to be disposed for the whole world. This is a photo of the way plastic water bottles from all over the world have been disposed in India. An easy way to start to change this is to support reusable water bottles. I believe I can achieve this goal.
