Introduction

today I am going to talk about climate change and why it is bad. The three things that are causing it are household waste, Earth’s atmosphere, and Landfill. I might make a few facts about pollution too! How are we going to change climate change?

Household Waste

how many breads are thrown away per day? 24 million! And that is only from UK households, imagine how many breads were thrown away per month. 744,000,000! What we do just like drink, eat, cutting paper, all makes waste! Here is an example.

These are all the things that should be recycled but weren’t. Over 200 billion cans have been used every year! So in total of how long I have lived, 200 billion x 9=1,800,000,000,000!!

Earth’s Atmosphere

The ozone layer is 3 millimetres thick. It is used to stop lots of heat to the earth. Because of pollution, the ozone layer is breaking and the sun’s heat is going onto different parts of the world. The cold places like Alaska, Antarctic e.g. are melting and polar bears are loosing their home and may soon go extinct.

Landfill

what is landfill you might ask. Landfill is a big pile of rubbish all in one area, and it is filled with toxic stuff and maybe rats. If you live near one, you might want to move. The landfill contains something that can give you illnesses and might kill if possible, it’s depending on what is in it.

this is an example of a landfill.

Conclusion

what can we do? We could stop putting our rubbish in the bin, instead we could put it in the recycling. If it’s an item that cannot be recycled, don’t litter, just put it in the normal bin. What happens when we do this? We save our world!
