The Problem

Plastic is everywhere—and it's hurting our planet. People use plastic bags, bottles, and wrappers every day, and most of it ends up in landfills, oceans, and even the stomachs of animals. I’ve seen birds picking at plastic and drains getting blocked. Many people don’t even know how dangerous single-use plastic is for the Earth and for us. I want to fix this problem by spreading awareness, showing simple alternatives, and helping kids and families say “No to Plastic, Yes to Planet!”

Our Plan

I am making short videos and posters to teach kids and families why we should stop using single-use plastic. I’m showing easy swaps like cloth bags instead of plastic ones, and how to reuse things at home. I also plan to talk to my school friends and teachers, put up awareness boards, and share my project on Instagram so more people can learn. I want to inspire other kids to take the first step toward a plastic-free future by showing that small actions can make a big difference.
