Explanation: Should New Zealand ban plastic straws?


You may not agree with me, but I believe that plastic straws should be banned from all facilities including supermarkets. Plastic straws has been an issue for years and I totally agree that factories should stop producing the number of plastic straws. Think about all the harm that people are causing without even noticing. Can't you see that our wild/marine life is suffering because of our ignorant actions. How would you feel if you were a poor animal with no voice? Plastic straws take 500 years to break down into micro plastic.

Did you know 65,000 straws are thrown away each year? Plastic straws are usually found in public areas, but mostly at beaches. People are getting upset, confused and mad because of the amount of plastic straws that are being thrown away after one use.
What is happening to people's minds?, This is ridiculous, disgusting and gross. Why use plastic straws when we have a lot of other choices to choose from? Would you rather save our animals or leave them to die? You tell me. Straws can be a great use, but think about it? Losing an animal is like losing a loved one. 

I feel so annoyed when I hear that plastic straws end up in our oceans, especially with our marine animals.
So think about the number of damages we are causing, because of the plastic straws that we use everyday. I as a proud New Zealander take my stand and fight on behalf of the animal welfare community! What can we do? How can we stop it? Now you tell me!

  1. Hello Joel,
    I think that this was a good way to persuade people into stop using plastic straws, because of the harmful things it has done to the marine animals. You used DRAFT as a example of fixing your writing, using vocab and language features, you really did well with putting your punctuation in the right place. You didn't have any mistakes because you used DRAFT to fix your mistakes, and using emotive language in persuading everyone to why we should ban plastic straws.
    Keep Up With The Great Work!
