Sea of Plastic
Plastics are destroying our oceans in two major ways.
ONE: effect on marine life
Discarded plastic makes its way down rivers into our seas. There, marine life ingests it and starves to death or becomes fatally entangled.
TWO: process as global death
Plastic is made from fossil fuels. The oil industry has filled our atmosphere with carbon dioxide, dangerously warming our oceans. Warming waters kill off kelp, and the cycle of life is disrupted.
