Brainstorm items from everyday life that you see these symbols on.

If in need of more items, conduct a search through your house of items that are marked.

Once items are listed, write a discussion on how you think your everyday life might be different if such items were not protected (as a guide: all soft drinks might mimic the Coca-Cola writing, or all use the same brand name).
