21. Pappy, the Paper Bag
Plastic bags are used all over
the world to carry everyday items
such as bread, clothes, toys, and
lots of other things. But Pappy, the
hero of our story, wasn’t a plastic
bag like all the rest- he was a very
special paper bag. And Pappy had
a mission to complete.
22. Pappy knew that all over the world
there were millions of plastic bags that
had been abandoned by people. These
ended up floating in the seas and oceans
and contaminating the water. These
caused damage to the creatures that lived
nearby.
23. Pappy didn’t want things to go on this way.
So he came up with a plan to put an end to plastic
bags being thrown away. One day he went to visit a
big supermarket to talk to the manager.
24. “Hello Mrs. Manager, my name is
Pappy and as you can see, I’m a paper
bag. I want to suggest an idea to avoid
using plastic bags in shopping,”
25. “What? Have you gone mad?
Where else would people put
their things?”
26. “Very simple. My plan is to replace plastic
bags with paper ones like me because we
don’t pollute the environment. I’d also like to
suggest something else that we reuse both
plastic and paper bags instead of throwing
them away.
27. “That’s not a bad idea. But why
is it better to use paper bags
and reuse them?”
28. The manager of the big supermarket realized
that they were wasting resources, and that
this could be avoided. So, the following week,
only paper bags were given out to the
shoppers.
29. Pappy went all over the world – one supermarket at a time. He spread his message that we should
always re-use our bags, encourage recycling and look after the planet.
30. “Well, because first it would
mean fewer plastic bags
spoiling the environment. But it
would also save us money. We
would be reusing all our bags
without needing to buy new
ones,”
31. Nice one Buddy!
