Ocean Cleanup

For Friday 20th we were deciding on if we should do the 20% project on doing an Ocean Cleanup, or making a new sport. We decided on doing the Ocean Cleanup because to us that is going to make the biggest impact on people and we all really wanted to do it. We did research on what is the top 10 most common found trash on the beach. When then started to see how much each one of those pieces of trash harmed the environment and if it was biodegradable.

For Friday 27th we were doing a lot of research on how much the top 10 most common trash harmed the beach/ocean. We were seeing if it was decomposable and if it was how long does it take to decompose, or if it isn't decomposable then why it isn't. We were also trying to see how much of each piece of trash is found on the beach each year, if that information is available. We also started to try to find how long it took to dissolve if it actually got into the water and how much it harmed the water.

  1. I think this 20 percent project is a great project. I love when people go and take care of our beaches, bays or rivers. I do have a question is radon still sing for the project update. I can't wait to hear more on your project. Good job!!!
