On the photo page dedicated to plastic, the task is to capture and display five photographs that illustrate the diverse uses of plastic in our environment. These images serve as a visual exploration of how plastic, a versatile and ubiquitous material, has been integrated into various aspects of daily life. Once the photographs are taken, they are to be arranged on the page, creating a snapshot of plastic's prevalence and utility in the modern world.

The exercise prompts reflection on the broader questions of material utilisation and suitability. By considering how we maximise the potential of materials like plastic, we can begin to understand why certain substances are chosen for a multitude of applications. Factors such as durability, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness make plastics an attractive option for many different purposes, ranging from packaging and construction to healthcare and transportation. The photo page activity encourages a deeper investigation into the reasons behind material selection and the implications of plastic use in our environment.
