1. 01What Our Class Survey Says About Plastic Use

   Hello, everyone. Our class wanted to know how much single-use plastic we use. So for one week, thirty students kept a record. Today, I'll present what we found.

2. 02How We Did It

   Every day, we counted each plastic item we used, like bottles, bags, and straws. At the end of the week, we added up the results.

3. 03The Results

   Here's what we found. Plastic bottles were the biggest group, with ninety-six items. Food packages came next, with eighty-four.

   The numbers on this slide are made up for practice. They are not real data.

4. 04What It Means

   In total, we used two hundred seventy items in just one week. That's about nine items per student. Over a year, that would be more than fourteen thousand items for our class.

5. 05Easy Changes

   Many of these items are easy to replace. A reusable bottle and a cloth bag alone could cut a large part of our plastic use.

6. 06Our Challenge

   So our class will try a new challenge: one more week, but this time with reusable bottles and bags. Then we'll compare the numbers.

7. 07Conclusion

   In conclusion, small habits add up to big numbers. Counting our plastic helped us see the problem clearly. Thank you.
