#EARTHMATTERS - EPISODE 1 - Ocean pollution is no laughing matter

in #life7 years ago

Marine pollution occurs when harmful, or potentially harmful, effects result from the entry into the ocean of chemicals, particles, industrial, agricultural and residential waste, noise, or the spread of invasive organisms. Eighty percent of marine pollution comes from land.

We go to the shoreline to see its regular magnificence. In case we're fortunate, possibly we'll see a dolphin tumbling off out yonder, or a whale detonating tufts of vapor over the surface. We never go to the shoreline to see waste, but it's dependably there. Clearly, the trash is loaded with stuff individuals don't need, similar to old toothbrushes, flossers, cigarette lighters, shopping sacks, popped inflatables ... I could continue forever. As you probably are aware, the greater part of this garbage is made of plastic.

Since the majority of the dispensable plastic can't get reused it just sits in landfills, discharging poisons. Huge amounts of it travels down our conduits, into the profundities of the seas or pushed onto the shorelines — and most unfortunately, stuck in the collections of pretty much everything that lives on our planet.

Here are some comic pictures i made to help you guys understand this matter and we should take a step to do something about it.

It's not just seabirds that feel the burn from plastics invading their environment. All kinds of animals wind up either eating plastic or getting entangled. Since we people are causing these issues, we have to discover arrangements. The creatures can't. They have advanced to flourish in their surroundings. Expendable plastic is not as much as extremely old, they don't have room schedule-wise to adjust — despite the fact that I wish they would attempt!
