Reflection
The most meaningful part of the campaign was filming with my friends and creating a film that informs the public of global warming and problems our world is facing related to pollution. Another meaningful part was acknowledging how so much marine life is in danger because of pollution. It was also very meaningful to see how much ice melts in one year. My environmental attitudes changed because I now think of pollution as a big issue that will bring us down. I used to think that pollution was a small side issue that had minor importance. I now also think that it is up to me to inform citizens about the issues our world is facing, such as ice melting in the north and south poles. I find it devastating to think about polar bears dying because of our doing. This changed my actions in a big way. I have started to recycle, pick up trash wherever I see it, and use reusable products, such as reusable water bottles, rather than plastic ones.
