1.1 Your Mission: Help the Planet by Reducing Pollution from Single-Use Plastics
A. Your Mission
B. Take Action Project: Producing A Podcast
Plastic pollution is making the air we breathe and the water we drink dirty, filling up our rivers and oceans, and harming the health of animals and humans. In this project, you will learn about using kinship to save our planet from plastic pollution. Then, you will write your own podcast to teach others about plastic pollution and inspire them to take action.
C. Gathering Your Evidence
Being a Fact Finder
In this module, you will learn all about:
- Why and how plastic was invented.
- How the popularity of single-use plastics has made the problem of plastic pollution massive.
- What Earth’s spheres are, how they interact, and how plastic harms each of them.
- What the hydrosphere is and why plastic is causing so much harm to oceans and waterways.
- Ways we can use kinship to fight plastic pollution.
You’ll play games, do experiments, watch videos, meet experts, and read. Every time you learn something new, you should write important information in your Mission Log. Write down anything you think will help you with your final project.
Write your notes in the “Fact Finder” section at the start of your Mission Log.
