Beeswax wraps

Talofa lava blogging world,

Before we get to Beeswax wraps we will be talking about plastic and how it is affecting every ones life.

Did you know that this month is plastic free July? In our class we have been looking at the plastic in our classroom and the plastic rubbish that we create. We have also been learning about how our plastic rubbish impacts our oceans wild life.

 Plastic has been affecting the great barrier reef, pacific ocean and much more. Some shops and Markets have been banning plastic to make the world a better place. Animals around the world have been eating plastic and dying from it.

 Even though plastic is most of the time useful we still have to destroy a lot of it because with plastic our future is not looking good.
