Consequences of New Pollution Law on Oceans and Marine Life
This article explores the implications of a new government law that increases ocean pollution. It proposes actions to combat this change, such as writing to lawmakers, forming advocacy groups, and documenting environmental damage. The dire consequences of inaction are highlighted, including the death of marine life, the degradation of popular beaches like Bondi, and the long-term impact on public water supplies and tourism. Raising awareness through community efforts is crucial for protecting our oceans and the ecosystems they support.

The Question What if the government decides to pass a law that would allow for more pollution to end up in the ocean? Give at least six possible actions you would take and/or consequences for our environment.
\\ Action I would take is I would write a letter that proposes an argument about the recent change in the law. This letter would go to the prime minister and I would ask for a reply A.S.A.P.
Action I would make a debating group, we would talk about the recent law passing and make giant billboards and signs telling them to save the ocean. This would also include a petition and a sign-up sheet, if they want to join the group.
Action I would wait a week and take photos of the beach after that week showing what the humans have done to the ocean. This would show that we shouldn’t be putting stuff in the ocean. Then I would post the pictures to the newspaper and to the government.
Consequence All the marine life would be dying. Penguins and fish would be getting stuck in plastic, the water would get oily and kill the marine life as there is no air for them to breathe.
Consequence Nobody would go into the waters ever again. The tap water would be yucky and no one would drink water. Because water evaporates, we wont have any rain to water plants that keep us healthy because the water would be infused with oils and rubbish.
Consequence Bye Bye Bondi Beach The beach would not be a landmark for Australia. Bondi Beach would not be famous anymore for its waters. As Australia is kn0wn for its great Aussie beaches they will be known for worse things. Tourists will not be coming to Australia and the government will be losing its companies and money.
