"Bob Hates Turtles" by Steve M

One day Bob was leaving to school as he normally does every single day. He grabs everything that he always grabs before he goes to school, his chap stick, his headphones, and a water bottle.  Bob continues to go on with his day as he normally does however it is such a hot day that he is constantly taking sips from his water bottle. He eventually finishes his water bottle by third period and he throws it away in the trash can instead in the recycle bin. He does this because the recycle bin was all the way across the classroom, he says, “That recycle bin is all the way over there, I don’t feel like walking over there.” He decides to buy a water bottle again because he is so thirsty. He goes and buys a water bottle for a dollar and then he immediately finishes the water bottle because he is a thirsty little boy. He looks around to see where he is going to throw the bottle away. He asks himself, “Where am I going to throw this water bottle away?” He sees the bright blue recycle bin but however bob is such a bum that he doesn’t feel like walking over there. He decides to throw it away in the trashcan that is closer to him. Bob continues the rest of the day without even thinking about his actions. He goes home and does the usual; he eats, does some homework, and then goes to sleep. The two water bottles that he threw away have different stories. The trash bins are emptied and the water bottles find themselves in two different locations. One of those water bottles ends up in a land fill with all the other trash that was in the trash can. This water bottle will then live the most boring life ever as it is going to stay in that land fill till it decomposes. It takes plastic around 1,000 years to decompose. This water bottle is just going to be chilling there till it dies. The second water bottle somehow makes it into a river, this river then flows into the ocean and the water bottle will just keep on floating in the ocean. It will drift and be pushed by the huge massive waves. The water bottle eventually finds itself close to the shore of some very exotic land. The water around this area has many beautiful fish and other animals like turtles. A turtle sees this water bottle and says, “Hey I’m pretty hungry and I see this strange object that I think is food, I’m going to eat it because I’m hungry.” The turtle consumes this water bottle that is made out of plastic. Plastic is a dangerous product that should not be consumed by anyone. Once digested the water bottle blocks the little turtle’s stomach. The turtle then is not able to digest food. This turtle ultimately dies of starvation. This beautiful animal that was just swimming around trying to live his life to the fullest and is now sadly dead because bob was such a lazy bum who didn’t want to take extra steps to toss the water bottle in a recycle bin. Bob is the reason why that turtle is dead. BOB MURDERED THAT TURTLE!
