Litter in Australia

Okay, kiddo, let's talk about litter in Australia. Do you know what litter is? It's the stuff that people throw away and leave outside instead of putting it in a bin. Sometimes it's things like food wrappers, bottles, or cans.

Now, when people leave litter outside it can cause some problems. For one, it can make the place look really messy and dirty. But litter can also be harmful to animals and the environment. If an animal eats the litter, it can get sick or even die. And if the litter isn't picked up, it can end up in rivers or oceans and harm the fish and other marine animals that live there.

That's why it's important that we all do our part to keep Australia clean and throw our trash away in a bin. There are even special groups of people called litter pickers who go around and clean up litter from the streets and parks.

So remember, it's not nice to litter and we should all work together to keep our environment clean and healthy for everyone and everything that lives here!
