PLASTIC & ANIMALS
Plastic pollution fact: More than 1,200 species are impacted by plastic, through ingestion or entanglement — both of which can sicken or even kill them. Birds, fish, turtles, dolphins, sharks and even whales can be poisoned or trapped by plastic debris, waste, and garbage. And all animals (including humans) on earth depend on the ocean for food and a healthy ecosystem that maintains the balance of greenhouse gases. Scientists agree: If the oceans die, we die.
