Microbeads

Nathan Cai Grade 4

Hello fellow readers! There has been a serious discovery that our grade four class has learned. Do you know what that is? It is microbeads. They are small plastic beads that are in personal care products such as toothpaste, face wash, and many more. Microbeads are the shiny dots in Crest and Colgate toothpastes and deep clean face washes. The microbeads cause pollution to the oceans and the great lakes because they are non biodegradable. After it enters the sewer system, it affects our food chain because the fish eat the beads, and if we eat the fish, it will enter our bodies. Luckily, there are some companies that are banning the use of microbeads. Thank you for reading my paragraph on microbeads.

Check in to see what some of our other readers and writers think about microbeads, and other forms of pollution!
