Our plastic waste for the day weigh 1/4 kg.

After completing my inventory , I realized that we use a lot of plastic throughout the day so we should learn how to dispose them properly.

Kids like me should learn how to dispose plastic waste to help the earth.

Since we dont use much of plastic when we are at home, I decided to collect some bottles from my cousin. Im planning to make it as piggy bank to reduce clutter from their rooms.

After completing my inventory, I realized that we need to recyle the plastic.

The mask is an example of a single garment that we throw away immediately

My realization from itemizing plastic are I was surprised by the quantity of single-use plastics, like plastic bags and food wrappers, which contribute significantly to the overall weight. It made the problem of plastic waste much more tangible and impactful. I also realized that different types of plastics have different properties and recycling capabilities. Some plastics are easily recyclable, while others are not, highlighting the need for better sorting and recycling infrastructure.

After completing my inventory, I realized that we have accumulated a lot of single-use Plastics, not only in our home but in my whole community. These plastics are thrown into the streets, canals, which can cause blockages. These plastics can also go into rivers, seas, and oceans if not acted on immediately.

I realized that I don't use that much plastics but plastic waste can harm the environment, humans, and animals. To solve this problem, we can just reduce plastic use. Let's reuse, recycle or choose eco-friendly alternatives. It's important to determine the types because different plastics have different impacts and it helps create a solution for it.

I didn't have to collect much because we already have a collection of bottled waters. I realized that we can't really avoid using plastics and such, because most of the things we buy are wrapped or packed in plastic, I also think that I'll be better with using plastics and would dispose them properly after answering thus activity. It's important to determine the type and not just the quantity of plastic waste because we'll be able to tell if it's recyclable or not.(Unfortunately, I wasn't able to weigh it)

For me I have realized that many of us do use plastics that aren't for any long term uses and some are in our communities, schools, and even our houses, and I realized that with these we are also contributing in the rotting of our planet, even if we recycle but we still use these kinds of Plastics, there would be no change, that's what I realized.

I realized how much plastic waste I generate and its impact on the environment. This activity made me more mindful of reducing, reusing, and recycling plastics. Identifying plastic types, not just quantity, helps with proper waste management and recycling.

I realized that throwing plastics, or not maintaining cleanliness have many effects also in future because it affects the environment, having a high weight of plastic items causes more damage on earth. I plan to not to throw everywhere and think how it would affect the earth and how it would affect my future for example, if i plan to reduce my consumption by: Choosing products with minimal packaging, using reusable shopping bags, water bottles, and coffee cups, avoiding single-use plastics.

I have come to realize that my every single use of plastic can cause significant harm to the environment if I do not aim to use the 5rs in each use. I have also come to acknowledge that I myself have done harm in the environment upon the years that I have lived in this world, and I wish to correct my mistakes and do better.

Through this activity, I realized how much plastic waste I generate daily and how it contributes to environmental problems like pollution and climate change. Seeing the actual weight of these plastic items made me more aware of my consumption habits and the need to reduce plastic use.

This activity will affect my future use of plastics by encouraging me to be more mindful of my choices—opting for reusable alternatives, properly segregating waste, and supporting eco-friendly products. It also reinforced the importance of reducing single-use plastics to minimize environmental impact.

Inspecting the **types** of plastic waste, not just the **quantities**, is crucial because different plastics have varying effects on the environment. Some are recyclable, while others are harder to process and may end up in landfills or oceans for centuries. Identifying the types helps in proper waste management, recycling efforts, and advocating for policies that reduce harmful plastic production.

This reflection motivates me to take small but meaningful steps toward a more sustainable lifestyle.
