Preventing Plastic Pollution- Secondary teaching pack

A piece of plastic found in our sea might have travelled a very long way from a park or bin located far inland, nowhere near the sea! This teaching pack follows the path of plastic from source to sea, and encourages students to consider reusable alternatives to avoidable plastics.
This pack includes 5 activities that range from sustainable celebrations, assessing the properties of plastic polymers and the carbon cost of plastic waste. There is also a template blank PowerPoint and certificate to celebrate your learners achievement!
