The Garbage Patch

 Key idea:

The cause and the effects of the great pacific garbage patch.

What must you achieve?

In this paragraph I am trying to show/prove/explain that.

That there are gonna be many causes and effects and we are trying to achieve that by research.

Information

Key evidence/information you want to include:

1. By finding information about the cause and effects.

2. It impacts the ocean because it is killing the animals and it pollutes the ocean.

3. Cause is what is causing this to happen and the cause is rubbish, the rubbish gets there because they litter and also drop it into it.

Delivery

Best paragraph structure to convey all this is:

I am trying to show you the cause and effects of the garbage patch, the garbage patch matters because us humans are the cause of the problem. It is also because if we as people don’t stop littering the waters will become toxic to us and sea life. If humans are exposed to these toxic chemicals for long periods of time it would be dangerous for mankind. Also when the sea animals are eating the rubbish or dying by the trash they are becoming intoxicated because in their bodies when they die there are left over particles of plastic, since the toxins from the plastic have entered the food chain that is threatening human health.

What I am trying to tell you is that the garbage patch is bad not just for the sea life but also for humankind because people could also die by what is happening to the ocean and sea animals.

The garbage patch is this big patch of garbage in the ocean. Every year about 100 million marine animals die from plastic and 100 thousand die by getting tangled in plastic yearly. But they say that is only the marine life they find so they are basically saying that there are more marine animals out there that are dead but we just can’t find them.

The way I got all my evidence was from reliable sites on google. All the sites I went through usually said the same thing so I assume it is right if so many of them are saying the same thing. On the other hand you can on youtube and find videos of the garbage patch and the marine animals either getting tangled in plastic or finding turtles with plastic straws in their nose or body. Sometimes there are some where they find dead sea animals and can’t help them because they have already passed.

Basically what I am trying to say is that we as people need to stop littering and stop dumping our rubbish into the ocean because in some countries there are people who dump their rubbish in the water by their boat. If we don’t stop we will all die from the toxic marine animals we eat or we will die from the toxic chemical in the water because we have been exposed to it for to long.
