RE: Plastic waste in the ocean has been found to have a twentyfold increase of disease in corals; adding one more threat to the list of things that could potentially kill corals
Yeah, we human beings are responsible to make environment neat and clean. But we are not fulfilling our responsibilities and we really don't care to throw plastic bags, soda bottles and many other plastic things in the oceans instead of threw away them in the garbage baskets.
This is the biggest reason that corals affected badly due to our negligence. This is really huge amount 11.1 billion of plastic bags around corals.
How can the little corals survive after infecting the disease? Really, they can't handle because they do't have good immune system. Even other little ocean species also can't handle. :(
Yeah, we all need to be more careful about where the plastic we use actually end up. If everyone delivers it to a recycling point (if you have those around), the plastic can be melted and reused, which means that it will not end up in the ocean - with the added bonus that we need to create less plastic from fossil fuels.
Exactly, we should take step individually when we end up the plastic at recycling points then on the other hand, we help to those factories who need plastic to recycle it in different form for reusing. The human positive thinking needs at this point because if they don't use their mind that where they have to put up these wastes then you can't help your community nor tiny species. We all have to take step individually from then on.!!!
I agree with you on this, @ikrahch :)
