Closed Set a target date to ban use of unsustainable plastics to prevent global warming

Closed on

I have been researching and learning about the causes of global warming and it has really affected me.

Plastics not only pollute our oceans, they also release greenhouse gases, contributing to global warming. I really want to help reduce global warming so that the next generation will have a beautiful future.

I am a year 5 pupil and have been nominated by my class to be the Eco Warrior due to my keen interest in the wellbeing of our planet. We think the Government should set a date by which use of all unsustainable plastics is banned in the UK, to help prevent global warming.
