We shared this TED-Ed video in one of our Facebook posts in 2018. The video provides a great visual explanation of what happens to the plastic bottles we throw away.

This is a technical video that is more appropriate for older students. They could watch the video and:

  • have a class discussion about the ideas presented in the video
  • take notes and summarise some of the key ideas
  • create a visual representation of some of the key ideas.
