Task 2. Now let’s watch the video about plastic pollution.

# data[].attributes.body
Put the events in the mentioned order.

1. Bottle one ends up in a landfill. As plastics sit there amongst layers of other junk, rainwater flows through the waste and absorbs the water-soluble compounds it contains.

2. Bottles are filled with liquid, wrapped, shipped, bought, opened, consumed and discarded.

3. Bottle two, after months lost at sea, is slowly drawn into a place known as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. Here some animals get entangled in the mess. They mistake the coloured plastic bits for food.

4. Some of these compounds are highly toxic. Together they create leachate, which can move into groundwater, soil and streams poisoning ecosystems and harming wildlife.

5. Most plastics don’t biodegrade which means they are destined to break down into smaller pieces rotating in the sea eternally.

6. Bottle three is brought into a plant where it is squeezed flat and compressed into a block. The blocks are shredded into tiny pieces which are washed and melted so they become raw materials that can be used again.

7. Plastic makes animals feel full when they are not so they starve to death.

8. Bottle three is now ready to be reborn as something completely new.

1. Bottles are filled with liquid, wrapped, shipped, bought, opened, consumed and discarded. (to collect/to throw away /to use)

2. Bottle one ends up in a landfill. As plastics sit there amongst layers of other junk, rainwater flows through the waste and absorbs the water-soluble compounds it contains. (to find yourself in a place or situation that you did not intend or expect to be in/to find a solution/to follow)

3. Bottle two, after months lost at sea, is slowly drawn into a place known as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. Here some animals get entangled in the mess. They mistake the coloured plastic bits for food. (get lost/get twisted / disappear)

4. Plastic makes animals feel full when they are not so they starve to death. (to get a little hungry/to be killed/to die from lack of food)

5. Most plastics don’t biodegrade which means they are destined to break down into (to drop/to separate into/to become smaller) smaller pieces rotating (fall apart/throw away/move in a circle) in the sea eternally.

6. Bottle three is brought into a plant where it is squeezed flat and compressed into a block. The blocks are shredded into (to cut sth into small pieces/to melt/to destroy) tiny pieces which are washed and melted so they become raw materials that can be used again.
