Packages. LITHUANIA
During technology lessons students’ task was to make
presentations about packages. They had to make a video about package size, shape
and color, how long it could take to decay and from what substances people make
them. So the students walked around the place where they live and picked trash.
They found that almost all packages were made of plastic and some of glass. They
studied and found out that plastic packages decay is terribly
slow from 200 to 500 years and it is dangerous for animals and
plants. The conclusion was made - before you throw trash on the ground
think about this what will happen to the animals that you love, to the flowers
you adore, to Earth.
