Creating Awareness of Microplastics
Toxic waste can be dumped into the oceans, and landfills, like people getting a good day at the beach and leaving the plastic bottle, plastic plates and so many other articles that could end at the ocean or anywhere else. Those plastic degrade with time and can become microplastics, plastics getting smaller and smaller over time. If they are in the ocean, the marine animals are going to eat them, they won't notice the difference if it is plankton or not. Other marine animals will eat those fish, and those fish will end into your plate to be eaten by you or me, or your family. That could affect your health and not be aware of what is causing it until it is late.
