The ongoing devastation to the oceans and our environment caused by plastic trash in all its forms continues at an alarming rate. Our oceans are becoming little more than sewers for the world’s refuge.
We now know that there are hundreds of millions of tons of plastic debris floating in the world’s oceans.
Every land mass bordered by the oceans is impacted. The four corners of the earth have literally been trashed. In Japan alone, it is calculated that 150,000 tons of plastic is washed up on its shores each year.
In an article written in National Geographic News, EIGHT YEARS AGO 44 percent of all seabirds eat plastic, apparently by mistake, sometimes with fatal effects. And 267 marine species are affected by plastic garbage—animals are known to swallow plastic bags, bottle caps, razors, cigarette lighters, balloons as the Chris Jordan Albatross trailer clearly shows.
