Question 1 50 / 50 pts Read the following text and use the information to answer the questions below. Environmentalists in Bali 1 Bali, one of Indonesia's 17,000 islands, conjures up images of perfect, golden beaches and azure waters. This description would be accurate, except for the plastic debris which litters the shores. In 2018, the issue of ocean pollution here received worldwide attention when a scuba diver called Rich Horner posted a video of himself swimming in a sea of plastic. The clip was horrifying, and it quickly went viral. 2 Two Dutch-Indonesian sisters, Melati and Isabel Wijsen, were already aware of the scale of the problem. Having grown up in Bali, they knew that plastic contamination was a major concern. With time they became convinced that they could be instrumental in bringing about change. To solve the problem, they believed itwas important to harness the power and enthusiasm of young people. They decided to launch a movement, which they called "Bye Bye Plastic Bag”. 3 The sisters began collecting signatures to support their cause, and eventually got over 100,000 people to register their concern. In 2017, they took their mission to the international stage by giving a moving speech at the United Nations in New York City. In the talk, they showed heartbreaking photos of animals entrapped in plastic and of stunning natural landscapes which had been completely soiled. The point they were making was simple: single-use plastics such as shopping bags, straws and Styrofoam containers should be banned. 4 Gradually, Melati and Isabel's efforts gained momentum. "We didn'twant to wait until we were older to stand up for what we believe in! they said, stressing that kids have the ability to effect change. In late 2018, they achieved a major success when the governor of Bali announced that single-use plastics would be forbidden on the island. Not only that, but the local government committed to a major marine cleanup effort. 5 Young people can lead the way, the sisters believe. They say they won't rest until visitors to the island paradise hear this question at the airport: "Welcome to Bali! Do you have any plastic bags to declare?" Rich Horner's video is proof that there is still more work to be done. However, the sisters' work suggests that ambitious conservation efforts are by no means impossible.
