Activity 7: Write a report on an environmental issue
Litter is a big issue in our local community. We must deal with it because it is bad for local wildlife and it makes our community look terrible.
This mostly occurs in our local park. It is caused by people dropping food wrappers from the nearby fast food restaurant.
So far,we make sure the park is cleaned every day. We have added more rubbish bins in the park to make it easier for people to dispose of this waste. We also spoke to the fast food restaurant and asked them to encourage people to dispose of their waste properly.
There is a plan to add more bins and signs to inform people about the need to dispose of waste properly. We have also asked the restaurant to provide help in cleaning up their waste.
The issue has been dealt with well, but more work is needed. It is hard to deal with these issues because there is a never-ending source of waste as people will always need to buy food. In the future,the best solution would be to find alternative ways of packaging.
Reducing Litter in Our Local Community
