Some of the plastic water bottles we use
WHAT DO WE CONSUME?
Our research taught us that we consume a lot of plastic bottles of water. We use them to bring water to school to drink during the day. We thought that we throw away a lot of plastic bottles so we are going to find an action to reuse and recycle the plastic bottles of water to consume plastic more sustainably. We are trying to make the environment better.

PLASTIC BOTTLES IN OUR DAILY LIVES
We use plastic bottles to drink water in hot days when we are thirsty at school.
There are about one thousand students in the school. Most of them buy plastic bottles in the breaktime .
This action is not sustainable because most of those bottles are thrown to the bin after using them only once, and usually they are not recycled.

OUR EVERYDAY ACTIONS 1
- We took one action to reduce our consumption of plastic bottles.
Instead of using plastic bottles, we used metal bottles or other kinds of materials.

OUR EVERYDAY ACTIONS 2
- To recycle them, we took another two actions:
1. We made crafts.
2. We used the bottle tops to donate them to charities.
That means that people in charities recycle them and get money in return.

CONCLUSION
After we took action, FOUR people in our class have started using water bottles made of other materials. We are collecting the tops of the bottles to donate them to charity. We are also trying to make the rest of the school aware of the consumption of plastic water bottles. Our book will soon be published on the school's website. Hopefully, everybody will make a more sustainable use of plastic water bottles.
