Marilyn, Nice article. I thought you did a very good job of explaining your topic. You included some great facts. I like the one about how much water is used in making each product. The only thing I thought you could have done better is added more information. Other than that great job!

Nice job. I liked all of your details because it was useful information. However, I think you could have spent more time on making it flow better and I found a spelling error.

Nice article, Marilyn! You have mentioned some interesting facts. However, you could include some more. Do you always pick plastic?

You did a good job on explaining why you picked plastic and had good statistics to back it up. I seen that you had a spelling error, spell check!

Nice job Mary. My only question is what supplies the energy to recycle? Is it renewable energy or is it non-renewable? For example does coal or oil supply the energy or is if water? If its renewable then why is it bad to use energy to recycle? Nice job!

Good job, Marilyn. I like how you explained your reasoning with statistics. It's always a touch choice whether to choose paper or plastic!

Great job! I think that you did a god job at putting your collected data into words. You described both of the topics very well, and made it a tough decision to choose between paper and plastic. Good Good!!

Nice end statement! A few more statistics would help. Both use water to cool down machines. It is a tough choice - one that can be see in your writing!

This is good. It's got good information and you prove your point pretty well. I'm not sure which one I would pick, but now I'm leaning more toward plastic. When you make paper bags, you use trees, so my question is do you know how many trees it takes to make 1 bag? How many trees are cut down each year to make paper bags throughout the world?
These may be stupid questions, but I'm just curious. Anyway, good job.
