11.Watching news about the environment on TV can make people feeel terrible.The problems seem so big that it's difficult to imagine how persons can do anything about them.Rebecca Hosking,however,thought differently.Rebecca is a wilflife camerawoman and she was filming a documentary for the BBC in the Pacific Ocean when she saw something that made her cry-quite a lot of dead birds that had died because they had eaten some plastic that is thrown into the sea each year.Beaches that used to be beautiful were covered with plastic toys,bottles,pens-every plastic thing you can think of.
Rebecca decided she had to do something.Back at home she thought about what she could do to help deal with the problem of throwaway plastic.In her home town of Modbury,she asked local shop owners to stop using plastic bags in their shops.
Plastic bags are used everywhere in the UK.The numbers are amazing.The UK uses are nearly 17,000,000,000plastic bags each year.And the bags can take a very long time to break down because they are chemical(化学物)rather than natural,so each year the sea and the environment become more and more polluted.
To Rebecca's surprise,the shop owners agreed and Modbury became the first plastic bag free town in the UK.Instead,shops offered cotton bags or paper bags.Other towns around the UK followed Modbury's example and are becoming plastic bag free.It won't deal with all of the world's environment problems but it shows that there is something we can do and one person can make a big change with a strong enough decision.
