  • What habits do you have that you could easily change in order to avoid single-use plastics? 
  • find a place recycle wrappers rather than throw them away
  • water bottles -reuse them or use reusable ones instead of buying disposable ones
  • bring your own cloth bags to grocery and other stores-if you do have plastic bags, reuse them

Is our plastic problem a catch-22? Why or why not? 

Yes because if we stop producing plastic we won't be able to sell goods but if we sell more plastic there is more pollution.]]> 2022-04-01 18:11:21 UTC https://padlet.com/griffinackerman/ln672v1b83msezhl/wish/2125868865 Post #3: 4/7/22 griffinackerman https://padlet.com/griffinackerman/ln672v1b83msezhl/wish/2135043896 Click on the link to this article and take a look at the different art exhibits created from recyclable materials. 

Choose one art installation to analyze. 
Which exhibit do you think is most interesting? What do you think the artist is trying to show the audience? Von Wong waves. It is showing the parting of the sea. I think he is saying he can stop the pollution the way the waves just stopped and made a little gap. ]]> 2022-04-07 17:35:42 UTC https://padlet.com/griffinackerman/ln672v1b83msezhl/wish/2135043896 Post #4: 4/20/22 griffinackerman https://padlet.com/griffinackerman/ln672v1b83msezhl/wish/2150800733
  • What overall message does the creator of this video want to convey? Why do you think that? I think the overall message that the author conveys in the video is to show how much plastic there is building up. To stop and recycle.
  •  Name at least ONE technique shown in the video to help convey that message. The video used graphics to help convey that there is enough plastic to weigh 3 statue of liberties.

    To tell us what kind of plastic it is.
    Find a plastic container in the classroom (water bottle, hand sanitizer, etc.) and determine the plastic code on the bottle. How should that container be recycled? The hand sanitizer has a one on it and is 96% of all plastic containers and should be recycled after use.

How do you think the cameraman achieved this? How could you recreate it in your documentary? When it was a video of a supermarket in the air.
