Garbage problem in the town of San Gabriel has become worse and the town mayor is
inviting families and residents to help by joining the Green Bay Heroes Campaign.
There are two main reasons why the people of San Gabriel must act on the problem now.
First, people are getting very sick because of eating fish and other seafoods that come
from polluted water.
First, garbage, particularly plastic thrown into the ocean can harm marine creatures
because they might swallow this material, mistaking them for food.
Because plastic breaks down very slowly, marine creatures that swallow plastic can
become very sick or even die.
Plastic is made from petroleum and is therefore difficult to break down, so they stay in
the ocean for a long time.
Second, garbage thrown into the ocean decreases the oxygen in the water, and this can
make marine creatures unhealthy.
Second, garbage thrown into the ocean can also harm people because the fish they eat
may have microplastic which is harmful to health.
The following is a brochure that tells you what the Green Bay Heroes Campaign is all about and
how you can join it. Read the brochure and do the tasks that follow. As you read, find out the
answers to the following questions.
