Rediscover the true value of water!

About

The global production and consumption of plastic bottles has continuously increased over the past 50 years. Regardless of the overwhelming negative information available to the public about the harm in using plastic water bottles, plastic still makes up 40% of our trash. Only about a quarter of all plastic water bottles actually gets properly recycled, with the remaining plastic ending up in natural habitats, killing plants and animals.

This project hopes to take a new approach to marketing information to the public by finding alternative ways to display and present factual information.  

I decided to engage the Fenway students in a drawing activity due to the minimal skill that it requires. I provided students with a fact about plastic water bottles and they drew a picture to represent what that fact means to them. This presents the students with information about bottled water that they otherwise may not have the access to. They utilize their creative brain to represent the important information.  

My objective is to further educate and increase awareness about the harmful use of plastic water bottles. I aim to provide people with alternative methods for recycling plastic bottles.
