THE BRITISH SCHOOL OF
PAINTING
1.
The "Golden Age"
of English Painting
The period from W. Hogarth
to Constable and W. Turner is the period between the 1730s and 1830s. It is
rightly considered to be the "Golden Age" of English painting. It
was at that time that England took path of capitalist development. It was
marked by the general advance in its economic might and national culture and
art. Some of the greatest foreign masters were attracted to England. Holbein,
Antonio More, Rubens, Van Dyck were almost English painters during a longer or
shorter period of their lives. They influenced greatly the formation of the
British national painting school.
One of them - the Flemish
painter Sir Anthony Van Dyck (1599-1641),
a pupil of great Rubens, is considered the father of the English portrait
school. He trained a few English pupils, nevertheless his principal imitators
and successors were like himself foreigners settled in London.
William Hogarth (1697-1764) was the first great English painter who raised English
pictorial art to a high level of importance. He was a man of remarkably
individual character and thought. He was the first English painter who brought
painting closer to literature and theatre. In his masterpieces The Rake's
Progress and The Marriage-a-la-Mode Hogarth showed himself as an innovator. He
was the first to invent a story and illustrate it. Being a social painter, he
produced his own pictorial drama, showing different scenes of society's social
life. His art was a reflection and a commentary on the social condition of his
time. Hogarth was a great master of composition, which is perfectly displayed
in his series of engravings. The
Marriage-a-la-Mode, the moral series consisting of six engravings, displayed
one of the sharpest problems of his time - marriage based on money and vanity. Although
his narrative pictures were comic and full of satire, his portraiture was
honest and original (the most brilliant of them are the portrait of The Shrimp Girl and his Self-Portrait). The portraits of W.
Hogarth are penetrating studies of character. The portrait of his face gives
an idea of that keen and brave look with which W. Hogarth regarded the world.
While looking at the famous The Shrimp
Girl, which stands among the masterpieces of the world, we can't help
admiring its harmony of form and content, its freshness and vitality. Breaking
all the unwritten laws of art of that time, W. Hogarth, a remarkable painter
and engraver, showed the terrible evils of the society of those times with
unprecedented courage.

The Brilliant School of
English Portrait Painting
In the second half of the
18th century narrative and satirical themes lost their leading role in English
art. The ruling classes during the years of industrial revolution tried to show
in art a glorification of their social position. The most popular form of
painting became ceremonial portraits of representatives of the ruling class.
Sir Joshua Reynolds (1723-1792) was the most outstanding portraitist
of that period. He was the first President of the Royal Academy of Arts in
Britain. He created a whole gallery of portraits of the most famous
contemporaries of his time. He gave the decisive impetus to the national
temperament. Reynolds painted portraits, group pictures and historical themes.
Among his sitters there were the socially prominent people of the time.
Reynolds made careful studies of Old Master paintings: Rembrandt, Titian,
Raphael. In his writings he evolved a doctrine of imitation, a fact with which
he had sometimes been reproached, but wrongly so, since he succeeded in making
his borrowings his own and giving to a composite creation a homogeneous,
personal and national character. For Reynolds each sitter was not just a
physical fact to be recorded, but rather a story to be told. Reynolds
succeeded in revealing his sitters' inner world. One of the most perfect
paintings in which a great artist had enshrined his dream of woman was The Portrait of Nelly O'Brien. Lighting
and colour show the artist's technique at it's best. Reynolds often painted the
characters in heroic style and they are not free of idealization (Mrs. Siddons as the Tragic Muse, Cupid
Unties the Zone of Venus, etc.)
Thomas Gainsborough (1727-1788) succeeded brilliantly as a portrait painter. A good amateur
violinist and a lover of the drama, he was an artistic person. His manner of
painting differs from Reynolds'. His portraits are painted in clear tones,
where blue and grey colours predominate (The
Blue Boy, Mrs. Sheridan). If
Reynolds was the solid prose of that age of prose, the incipient poetry was
with Gainsborough, whose name is so often coupled and contrasted with his one.
Even in the portraits Gainsborough is an out-of-door painter. The backgrounds
of his portraits are often the well-observed country scene. T. Gainsborough is
the creator of the great English school of landscape painting. His great love
for the English country and his delicate understanding of nature are especially
felt in the pictures The Watering Place,
The Harvest Waggon. Not for nothing
was the master a musician. His painting has a quality belonging to this most
abstract and fleeting of arts.

3. A Glory of English Art — the
Landscape Painting
If portrait painting is one
of the glories of English art, landscape is the other one; in both directions
it rose to supreme height.
John Constable (1776-1837) is one of the most outstanding painters, who developed his
own style of painting. He was the first English landscape painter to ask no
lessons from the Dutch. His originality does not lie in the choice of subjects,
which frequently repeat themes beloved by Gainsborough. Nevertheless,
Constable seems really to belong to another century; he ushers in a new era and
this difference results at once from technique and feeling. He considered the
sketch made directly from nature the first task of the painter to do. He
introduced green into painting, the green of trees, the green of summer, all
the greens which until then, painters refused to see. He used broken touches of
colour. He made quick sketches based on his first impressions of natural
beauties. His work is important as the beginning of the impressionist school.
His masterpieces are The Haywain, The Flatford Mill. In his works J. Constable
gave the impetus for the development of the realistic trend in British painting
that was first developed alongside with the romantic trend.
Constable was an acute
observer of nature and had a romantic passion for light. For him light was a
means of great importance. Constable's treatment of skies is especially
notable. No one has painted cloud effects so truthfully and depicted them with
so much skill. The sparkles of light and colour in Constable's works and the
deliberate roughness of texture broke with the tradition of smooth painting.
Besides the intrinsic merit of Constable's work, it is also historically
important for the effect it had on both the Romantic and the Impressionist
group.
William Turner (1774-1851) had a life-long passion for the sea and he dedicated most
of his paintings to it. He was a sailor and the sea absorbed him. He gave to
his seas mass and weight as well as movement. His waves seem to be alive. To a
sailor a ship is a living creature, courageous and loyal. In drawing ships
Turner shows a knowledge that springs from love. If Turner sympathized with
ships, he sympathized equally with the men within them and loved to depict
fishermen pulling at oars or sailors grappling with ropes. He only cared in
fact to portray the mood of the sea as it affected the experiences of a man. Calais Pier is one of his grandest
creations. The more it is studied the more actual the vision of a storm
becomes. Those who look at the picture can smell the water and hear the shout
of the wind. The composition gains unity from the concentration in the center
of the picture of two masses of light upon the sky above and upon the waves
below. The colouring of the painting is masterful.

ABOUT THE
STYLES
|
THE ARTISTS
|
Abstract
|
Abstract artists felt that paintings did not have to show only things
that were recognizable. In their paintings they did not try to show
people, animals, or places exactly as they appeared in the real
world. They mainly used colour and shape in their paintings to show
emotions. Some Abstract art is also called Non-objective art. In
non-objective art, you do not see specific objects. It is not painted to
look like something specific.
|
Sonia Delaunay
Jackson Pollock
|
Cubism
|
Cubism is modern art made up mostly of paintings. The paintings are
not supposed to look real The artist uses geometric shapes to show what he is
trying to paint. Early cubists used mainly grays, browns, greens, and
yellows. After 1914, Cubists started to use brighter
colours. Cubism was the beginning of the Abstract and Non-objective art
styles.
|
Georges Braque
|
Expressionism
|
In Expressionist Art, the artist tries to express certain feelings about
some thing. The artists that painted in this style were more concerned
with having their paintings express a feeling than in making the painting
look exactly like what they were painting.
|
Vasily Kandinsky
Ludwig Kirchner
|
Fauvism
|
Fauvism was an art style that lasted only four years, beginning in
1905. The leader of this movement was Henri Matisse. The word
Fauvism is French for "wild beasts". It got this name because
the paintings had bright and unusual colours. The subjects in the
paintings were shown in a simple way, and the colours and patterns were
bright and wild.
|
|
Impressionism
|
Impressionism was developed in France during the late 19th and early 20th
centuries. These pieces of art were painted as if someone just took a quick
look at the subject of the painting. The paintings were usually in bold
colours and did not have a lot of detail. The paintings in this style
were usually outdoor scenes like landscapes. The pictures were painted
to look like they were shimmering.
|
Mary Cassatt
Camille Pissaro
|
Pointillism
|
In Pointillism, the artist uses small dots or strokes of paint to make up
the pictures. From far away, these dots blend together to form the picture
and give the impression of different colours as they blend together.
|
Paul Seurat
Paul Signac
|
Pop Art
|
Pop art can be any every day item that is drawn in a brash and colourful
way. Pop Art is short for Popular Art. It is inspired by comic
strips, advertising, and popular entertainment.
|
Roy Lichtenstein
David Hockney
|
Postimpressionism
|
Postimpressionism began in the 19th century. It was mainly still
life and landscapes. The postimpressionists liked to use lots of colours and
shadows.
|
Paul Cezanne
|
Primitivism
|
Primitive Art looks like art that is done by a child. Usually the
picture is painted very simply, and the subjects are "flat", or
two-dimensional.
|
|
Realism
|
Realism is a type of art that shows things exactly as they appear in
life. It began in the 18th century, but the greatest Realist era was in
the mid-19th century. Most Realists were from France, but there were
some famous American painters who were Realists also.
|
Gustave Courbet
|
Surrealism
|
Surrealist paintings were generally based on dreams. Their paintings
were filled with familiar objects which were painted to look strange or
mysterious. They hoped their odd paintings would make people look at
things in a different way and change the way they felt about
things. They thought that their paintings might stir up feelings in the
back of people’s minds.

Bilokur?

paint most of all.
Katerina
Bilokur
(1900-1961)
(1900-1961)
Katerina Bilokur is a highly original Ukrainian folk artist. Her beautiful pictures of
the colorful Ukrainian nature are a significant landmark in the history of
Ukrainian folk art.
Katerina Bilokur's life was not easy. She was born on December 7,1900, in the village
of Bohdanivka , Kiev
Katerina Bilokur's life was not easy. She was born on December 7,
The first
works of Bilokur (1920s – early 30s) were amateurish. They were the portraits
of people made with charcoal and self-made vegetable paints. The second half of the 1930s was an important period
in her creativity. Then she began drawing still-life. Even her earlier works – “The Birch”, “Flowers by the
Fence”, “Flowers” and some others showed her creative
abilities.
Vitality,
fanciful composition, harmony and sense of colours in the pictures became the
main features of all her works. Being scrupulously and faithfully depicted,
each detail in Bilokur's pictures is perceived as a really existing one. The
main effect is produced by the use of pure colors which is characteristic of
folk decorative art on the whole.
Bilokur's
paintings were first displayed at the Poltava Regional Exhibition in 1940 end
then at the National Exhibition in Kiev. They were highly appreciated by
art-lovers end art-critics. Unfortunately, all of the works displayed at the
Poltava exhibition in 1941 perished during the Second World War. Only some
works of the period, which were not entered in the exhibition, have been
preserved (“Flowers and Birches
at Eventide”, “Flowers in Fog”, “Dahlias”, “Field Flowers”).
In the
1950s Bilokur made her first attempts in water-colour painting. Her best works
of the period (“Bohdanivka Village in September”, “Beyond the Village”, “Early Spring”, “Autumn”) are noted for their extraordinarily emotional
expressiveness. During the last years of her life, which were dimmed by serious
illness, Katerina Bilokur created a number of notable pictures such as “Dahlias”, “Peonies”, “Bohdanivka Apples”, “Bunch of Flowers” and others.
Katerina
Bilokur died on June 9, 1961. She was given the honorable title of People's
Artist of the Ukrainian SSR and awarded the Badge of Honor and a diploma of the
Supreme Soviet of the Ukrainian SSR. In her native village a monument was
erected in her honor. At all times of the year its pedestal is covered with
flowers which she so admired.
In one of
her letters K. Bilokur wrote: "You may not like my works as I paint only
flowers. But how can I not paint them if they are so beautiful! When I paint
flowers I forget about everything in the world. Don't be angry with me, my
close and distant friends, for painting flowers, because the pictures with
flowers are beautiful." Bilokur's art is based on her profound knowledge
of nature and folk art traditions, and the impact her canvases produce is
really unforgettable.

1840 on November 14 in Paris. Even when he was young he was a very good
artist. His pictures were so good that an art supply store let him hang
his pictures in their window.
Monet's parents did not want
him to become an artist because they thought he would not make a good
living. That did not stop him though. When he was 20, he studied
art at an inexpensive art school in Paris.
Monet often went on trips
around France to paint. . This is where he painted his Impressionist cathedral paintings that became very
famous. His house also had a wonderful garden with a lily pond that had
a Japanese bridge across it. These were his favourite things to paint.
Monet died in 1926.
Unlike many artists, he was famous even before he died. Now his
house in Giverny is a museum that is visited by many people.

Pablo Picasso
|
Pablo Picasso was born in
Malaga, Spain on October 5, 1881. His father, Jose Ruiz, was also an
artist. Picasso painted in many styles, including Cubism and Expressionism. He also sculpted. In cubism, he
tried to show the dimensions of the objects in his paintings. When he
painted in the classical style, his shapes were round and soft. In
cubism, his shapes were square and hard.
When Picasso painted, he had
a blue period and a rose period. For about three years in his early
twenties, he used mostly light blue colours in his paintings. The rose
period came after the blue period. It began after he moved from Spain to
France.
Because he could work in
multiple styles, Picasso became very famous. He used great lines and
colour in his paintings.

Vincent Van Gogh
|
Van Gogh was born in Holland
in 1853. He worked at many jobs, such as at an art gallery, a bookstore,
as a preacher, and at last, he became an artist. He didn't have a very
happy life. He painted sad paintings with poor people in them. His
paintings were always very dark until he saw some colorful Japanese paintings. Then
Van Gogh started painting happier paintings. Most of his work was in the
Postimpressionist style.
One day, he moved to live
with his brother because he was unhappy where he lived, and he wanted to find
someone to paint with. When he finally found someone, he wished he hadn't. Van
Gogh and the other artist did not get along. After this, Van Gogh became
so sad that he cut part of his ear off!
After these things happened,
he painted one more gloomy painting. It was called Wheatfield with
Crows. After he finished it, he shot himself.

Andy Warhol
|
Andy Warhol was born in
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in 1928. Andy was born with a natural talent
for art. His mother encouraged him with his drawings. His teachers
thought he had such a good talent for art that he should go to weekend art
class. When his family saved enough money to send Andy to art college, he
went to Carnagie Institute of Technology, where he studied design and
illustration. That's where he developed his unusual art style.
When he graduated from
school he went to New York City for a job. He got jobs doing magazine
illustrations, decorating department store windows, greeting cards, record
albums, book covers, and suns, clouds, and raindrops for television weather reports. He
still was not satisfied because he was not famous.
His friend suggested him to
draw everyday items. This was called Popular, or Pop Art. People liked his pictures because they
were bright, attractive, and familiar. Warhol liked getting people’s
ideas for new drawings.
He also tried making
films. Warhol died in 1987. By that time, he was a famous
artist. His works made people think of the important, everyday things in
their lives.

Past Perfect – минулий доконаний
(перфектний) час в англійській мові. Використовується для позначення
подій, що завершилися перед будь-якою дією в минулому. Більш детально Past
Perfect розглядається нижче, де є правила його використання, допоміжні слова та
приклади його вживання.
Утворення Past
Perfect
У стверджувальних реченнях Past
Perfect утворюється за допомогою використання допоміжного дієслова to have у третій формі (had) та дієслова у
третій формі, якщо воно неправильне або
ж простим додаванням до нього закінчення -ed.
Правило:
Іменник + had + дієслово з закінченням -ed або
у 3 формі
Приклади
стверджувальних речень:
I called Jim too late, he had already left.
– Я подзвонив Джиму надто пізно, він вже пішов.
We had lived in Paris for 12 years before we
moved to America. – Ми
жили в Парижі протягом 12 років, після чого ми переїхали до Америки.
Заперечні речення в
Past Perfect утворюються за тією ж формулою, що й стверджувальні, окрім того, що після допоміжного
дієслова потрібно ставити частку not. Формула:
Іменник + had + not + дієслово з закінченням -ed або у 3 формі
Had та not можуть
зливатися та утворювати hadn’t.
Приклади заперечних речень:
We were not able to get a hotel room
because we had
not booked in advance. – Ми не змогли отримати кімнату в готелі, тому що не забронювали її заздалегідь.
He didn’t pass the exams, because
he hadn’t prepared answers.
– Він не пройшов екзамени, оскільки не приготував відповіді.
Питальні
речення в Past Perfect утворюються за допомогою переміщення
допоміжного дієслова на перше місце в реченні. Правило:
Had + іменник + дієслово з закінченням -ed або
у 3 формі
Приклади питальних речень:
Had you washed your
hands before you took the food? – Ти мив свої руки перед тим, як взяв їжу?
Had they done their
homework before they went out? – Вони зробили домашнє завдання перед тим, як пішли гуляти?

Випадки, в яких вживається Past Perfect
Крім
знань правил утворення Past Perfect доречно знати випадки, коли вживання
минулого доконаного часу буде доречним. наведені нижче приклади використання
допоможуть вам зорієнтуватися.
I варіант використання: завершена дія перед дією в
минулому
В
даному випадку Past Perfect використовується для того, або показати, що
будь-яка дія відбулася раніше іншої події. Приклади:
I had never seen such a beautiful beach before
I went to Kauai. – Я ніколи не бачив такого прекрасного пляжу, як у Кауаі.
I did not have any money because I had lost my
wallet. – Я не мав грошей, бо я загубив гаманець.
A: Had you ever visited the U.S. before your trip in
2006? – Ти коли-небудь відвідував США перед своєю поїздкою туди у 2006?
B: Yes, I had been to the U.S. once before. – Так, я був у США один раз до цього.
B: Yes, I had been to the U.S. once before. – Так, я був у США один раз до цього.
II варіант використання: тривала дія в минулому перед
подією
Past Perfect може вживатися для
описання події, що відбувалася деякий час і завершилася перед іншою дією в
минулому. В такому випадку використання минулого перфектного часу можливе лише
з дієсловами, що не є довготривалими (Non-Continuous Verbs) або ж з дієсловами
змішаного типу (Mixed Verbs); дивіться статтю види дієслів. Приклади:
We had had that car for ten years before it
broke down. – Ця машина в нас була 10 років, після чого зламалася.
By the time Alex finished his studies,
he had been in
London for over eight years. – Коли Алекс закінчив своє навчання, він перебував у Лондоні вже більше 8 років.
They felt bad about selling the house
because they had
owned it for more than forty years. – Вони не добре себе почувають після продажу будинку, в якому вони жили більше ніж 40 років.
III варіант використання: дія в минулому, що відбулася в
певний час
Past
Perfect також можна вживати при описі дії, що відбулася в певний проміжок часу
в минулому, перед іншою подією. Але використання цього часу в таких випадках не
є обов’язковим. Наприклад:
She had visited her Japanese relatives once in
1993 before she moved in with them in 1996. – Вона відвідала своїх родичів з Японії у 1993, перед тим як вона переїхала до них у 1996.

ВІДЕОУРОК НА ПРИКЛАДІ ВІДОМИХ ПІСЕНЬ
Past Perfect Continuous - минулий тривалий
доконаний час в англійській мові. Вказує на дію, що розпочалася в минулому,
продовжувалася деякий час і завершилася або не завершилася перед якою-небудь
подією в минулому. Більш детально правила утворення часу Past Perfect
Continuous у стверджувальних, заперечних та питальних реченнях, допоміжні слова
та приклади використання розглянуто нижче.
Утворення Past
Perfect Continuous
Для утворення стверджувального
речення у Past Perfect Continuous необхідно
використовувати допоміжні дієслова had been та дієслово з закінченням -ing.
Формула утворення стверджувального речення:
Іменник + had been + дієслово з закінченням -ing
Іменник та had можуть
скорочуватися та утворювати ‘d.
Приклади розмовних речень:
I had been playing football for 2 hours and then I took a
shower. – Я грав у футбол дві години, після чого прийняв душ.
I‘d
been typing this
text for 2 hours and then found it on the Internet. – Я набирав цей текст дві години, а потім знайшов його в Інтернеті.
Заперечні речення у Past
Perfect Continuous утворюються за схожим шляхом, лише з тією відмінністю, що після допоміжного
дієслова had додається частка not.
Формула:
Іменник + had + not + been + дієслово з закінченням -ing
Допоміжне дієслово had та частка not можуть зливатися і утворювати hadn’t.
Приклади заперечних речень:
I hadn’t been playing football all day before I
got home. – Я не грав у футбол увесь день, перед тим як я добрався додому.
They had not been waiting for
you for 2 hours before you came. – Вони не чекали на тебе 2 години, коли ти прийшов.
Питальні речення в Past
Perfect Continuous утворюються за допомогою
переміщення допоміжного дієслова had на початок речення. Формула:
Had + іменник + been + дієслово з закінченням
-ing
Приклади питальних речень:
Had you been doing your
homework for 3 hours before I came? – Ти робив своє домашнє завдання три години
перед тим, як як прийшов?
Had it been
raining before he arrived at home? – Чи був дощ перед тим, як він приїхав додому?
Допоміжні слова Past Perfect Continuous
При вживанні часу Past Perfect Continuous можна використовувати наступні допоміжні слова (так звані слова-покажчики):

Випадки, в яких вживається Past Perfect Continuous
Головне
при вивченні будь-якого часу – знати випадки, коли його вживання буде доречним.
Нижче наведені правила та випадки користування Past Perfect Continuous у
різних ситуаціях.
I варіант використання: тривала дія перед подією в минулому
Past
Perfect Continuous використовується у випадках, коли потрібно поставити акцент

over an hour before Tony arrived. – Вони розмовляли більше години перед тим, як прибув Тоні.

B: I had not been studying Turkish very long. – Я не вчив турецьку надто довго.
II варіант використання: причина чогось в минулому

показати причинно-наслідковий зв’язок між подіями у минулому. Приклади:
Jason was tired because he had been jogging.
– Джейсон втомися, оскільки він бігав.
Sam gained weight because he had been overeating.

Sport in England
Sports play an important part in the life in Britain and is a popular leisure activity.
Many of the world's famous sports began in Britain, including cricket, football, lawn tennis, golf and rugby
England's national sport is cricket although to many people football (soccer) is seen as our national sport. Football is our most popular sport. Some of England's football teams are world famous, the most famous being Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool.
Cricket is played on village greens and in towns/cities on Sundays from April to August
The rules of cricket became the responsibility, in the 18th century, of the Marylebone Cricket Club(MCC), based at Lord’s cricket ground in north
London.
London.
How to play Cricket
Teams are made up of 11 players each. They play with a ball slightly smaller than a baseball and a bat shaped like a paddle. Two batters stand in front of wickets, set about 20 metres apart. Each wicket consists of three wooden rods (stumps) pushed into the ground, with two small pieces of wood (bails) balanced on top. A member of the opposing team (the bowler) throws the ball towards one of the batters, who must hit the ball so that it does not knock a bail off the wicket. If the ball travels far enough, the two batters run back and forth between the wickets while the fielders on the opposing team try to catch the ball. The game is scored according to the number of runs, which is the number of times the batters exchange places.
Football is undoubtedly the most popular sport in England, and has been played for hundreds of years.
In the English Football League there are 92 professional clubs. These are semi-professional, so most players have other full-time jobs. Hundreds of thousands of people also play football in parks and playgrounds just for fun.
The highlight of the English football year is the FA (Football Association) Cup Final each May.

| The first set of laws of the game of football, or soccer as it is known in the US, date from the formation of The Football Association in England in 1863. |
Rugby originated from Rugby school in Warwickshire. It is similar to football, but played with an oval ball. Players can carry the ball and tackle each other. The best rugby teams compete in the Super League final each September.
For many years Rugby was only played by the rich upper classes, but now it is popular all over the country. There are two different types of rugby - Rugby League, played mainly in the north of England, and Rugby Union, played in the rest of England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland, together with France and Italy, play in an annual tournament called the Six Nations.
American Football derived from our game of Rugby also Baseball derived from the old English game of Rounders.
Tennis
The world's most famous tennis tournament is Wimbledon. It started at a small club in south London in the nineteenth century. It begins on the nearest Monday to June 22, at a time when English often have the finest weather. Millions of people watch the Championships on TV live.
It is traditional for visitors to eat strawberries and cream whilst they watch the tennis.

PLASTIC BAGS
Twelve years ago,
oceanographer Captain Charlie Moore was skippering his yacht the Alguita in
the North Pacific. He sailed into a mass of floating plastic rubbish which took
him and his crew a week to cross. This floating rubbish dump is now called the
Great Pacific Garbage Patch and doubles the size of the USA.
The United Nations says there
are now 18,000 pieces of plastic in every square kilometer of sea everywhere in the world. A walk along
any beach will give you some idea of the seriousness of plastic pollution.
The trouble is, when we throw
out plastic with the trash, the plastic doesn't go away. Plastic does not
biodegrade. It photo degrades into smaller and smaller particles which then
enter the food chain. Plastics contain cancer-causing chemicals such as vinyl
chloride which travel along the food chain in increasing concentrations and end
up in our fish and chips, along with hormone disruptors such as bisphenol A.
Scientists try to tell us that we are killing ourselves as well as other
animals. At least 200 species are, as I speak, being killed by plastic. Whales,
dolphins, turtles and albatross confuse floating plastic, especially shopping
bags and six pack rings, with jellyfish. A dead Minke whale, washed up on a
Normandy beach, was found to have eaten plastic bags from supermarkets and had
died a dreadful death.
8 % of all the world's oil
production is for plastic. According to the United States Environmental
Protection Agency, companies manufacture 5 billion plastic bags a year. Of all
the plastic produced annually, half is for packaging which gets thrown out
with the trash a few minutes after purchase. And 10% of all rubbish is plastic
bags which take from 400 to 1000 years to degrade. Less than one per cent of
plastic bags are recycled and only 4 % of all other plastic waste, the reason
being it is simply too expensive to do.
The same lobbies that work
against electric vehicles and renewable energies, put governments under
pressure not to act against plastic pollution. This is because plastic
represents 8 % of all the world's oil production. These lobbies, acting on
behalf of oil companies, represent an unsustainable approach to profit. To
paraphrase the Cree Indian prophecy, only when we have wiped everything out
will we realize that money cannot be eaten.
Some countries have rebelled
and banned plastic bags. And the first was brave Bangladesh. Then China took
the same decision and, according to CNN Asia, saves itself 37 million barrels
of oil a year. Botswana, Canada, Israel, Kenya, Rwanda, Singapore and South
Africa have also banned plastic bags. Notice how many of the world's richest
countries are not on this list. It's an absolute disgrace.
Alright, then. If we can't use
plastic bags, how do we carry home the shopping? Take a back pack or a folding
shopping trolley. Change supermarket to one that provides biodegradable bags,
made from potato starch for example. Use consumer power.
Personally speaking, what I
need to find now, is a supermarket that sells biodegradable bin liners,
otherwise I still end up using plastic.
I recently spent a week in New
Zealand on honeymoon and saw that everyone was using special paper bin liners.
I wish we did something similar here in Spain.
Think globally, act locally. A
small Australian town is now one step ahead of the rest of the world. The
inhabitants of Bundnoon in New
South Wales have banned plastic bottles from the town. We need to follow their
example and eliminate plastic from our lives, take care of the earth and vote
for people we think will do the same.
