Hi, my name is Robyn Theron. I am 11 years old and I watched a video by Severn Cullis Suzuki. She spoke at the United Nations conference 25 years ago. After I watched it I decided that I have to do more. So I'm starting this blog to inspire people to help me make a difference. Part of my plan to make a difference is to reduce the use of plastic. I understand that it will be hard to not use plastic at all so let's work on challenges: 1) Try not use any plastic bags from shops for three days a week. It's hard in the beginning, but soon it becomes a habit. You will see that you might not need to use plastic bags for 7 days a week : ) Plastic bags take 500 years to forever to decompose. 2) Try to reduce your use of plastic straws. Why do we use straws anyway? Did you know it takes between 200 - 500 years for straws to decompose? More than 97% of dead Laysan albatross chicks and more than 89% dead adult birds contain plastics in their stomachs. It breaks my heart. 3) Try

Global consumers now use a million plastic bottles every minute , 91 percent of which are not recycled. Our growing consumption of single-use plastic is evident in the form of ever-expanding landfills, as well as pollution on our sidewalks, along roadways and in natural ecosystems. Plastic that is littered or blown out of waste bins makes its way into storm drains, streams and rivers. Ultimately, up to 8 million metric tons of it enter the world's oceans every year. Scientists aren't sure how long it takes for plastic to fully biodegrade—estimates range from 450 years to never, National Geographic reported in its June issue , which is devoted to the mounting plastic pollution problem. But we know enough to know that the staggering 9.2 billion metric tons of plastic produced since the 1950s isn't going anywhere anytime soon. At this
