Brenda: I think we shouldn't use styrofoam cups and styrofoam plates, because those things pollute

the environment. What do you think?

Billy: You're right, styrofoam pollutes the environment. I also think that people cannot spill oil,
chemicals, detergents and other pollutants into rivers, lakes and oceans, because it destroys
marine life, such as fish, plants, and coral reefs.

Charlie: It also alters animal populations because when plants are destroyed and water is poisoned,
animals must leave their natural environment to try to find food.

Susan: My family and I don't like to use plastic bottles or plastic bags. We are learning to use cloth
bags to go shopping. And we are learning to drink out of ceramic or porcelain cups. We drink from a
cup, then wash it and dry it and use it again.

Charlie: Maybe we can all have an "environment" picnic, what do you think about that? We can
bring food wrapped in newspaper or plant leaves, like the leaves of a banana plant. We can bring
magazines printed on recycled paper.

Susan: I think those are very good plans. I'll bring Kentucky fried chicken, made from chickens that
are treated humanely and fed good grains.

Brenda: And I will bring hard-boiled eggs from those chickens. Egg shells are good for compost for
the soil.

Billy: And I'll bring water and juice for us to drink, not artificial beverages in cans, because cans are
not good for the earth.

Brenda: It will be a wonderful picnic. We will have fun, and our picnic will be good for the earth!
