January 21, 2025Recycle Plastic, Save Marine Life
Plastic pollution poses a significant threat to marine ecosystems. Every year, millions of tons of plastic waste enter the oceans, endangering marine life and disrupting delicate aquatic ecosystems. From microplastics consumed by fish to larger plastic debris that entangles sea turtles and marine mammals, the impact of plastic waste is devastating. Scientists estimate that over 100,000 marine animals and countless seabirds die annually due to plastic pollution. If left unchecked, the damage caused by plastic waste could lead to irreparable harm to ocean biodiversity and global ecological balance. -
