Today we have presented the groups aloud.
Then, we have discussed about three important facts:

- Using less plastic when doing the shopping. 
- Excess of plastic bottles and plastic cups. 
- Air pollution in Madrid. 

Irene told to us that we had to choose only one that we consider relevant.
We chose excess of plastic bottles and plastic cups because we are worried about this. Also, we think that there is an overproduction of plastic. For example, in the supermarket they use a lot of plastic in bottles instead of using cardboard or glass which will be better for the environment. And nowadays, plastic is a material do not degrade easily and can take very long time for it. This is bad for the animals, as they can eat it and get hurt. In addition, over accumulation of plastic is stored normally in underdeveloped countries in which it affects the population.

Then, we have to agree among all the class, and choose only ONE topic. We have joined the two topics related to plastic, and we chose: reducing plastics. 

We have found solutions about this topics:

• Use metal straws
• Use Bambu toothbrushes
• Use bottles made of glass o cardboard
• Use paper bags or cloth bags
• Buy glass tuppers
• Use matches instead of lighters
• Cloth diapers 
• Buy in bulk
• Biodegradable chewing gum
• Use wooden utensils in the kitchen and wooden clothespins
• Wear menstrual cup

For next week, we have to bring a new about plastic consumption.
