    (b) The pupils researched the effect of plastic waste on wildlife.
    They found that:




    2 million seabirds die each year due to eating or getting wrapped in plastic.
    Turtles eat plastic bags mistaking them for jellyfish, their normal food.
    A dead whale was found to have a kilogram of plastic in its stomach.
    Burning plastic releases poisonous gases.
    The UK is running out of sites to dump plastic.
