Plastic waste is a problem that has to be acknowledged by everyone. Plastic pollution affects marine life and their ecosystem🐳🌍. It`s time to take action, to save our Oceans! #environment #plastic #marinelife #climate #reuse #recycle #plasticpollution #plasticwaste #sustainable

DAY 46: Even though much the trash and waste dumped into the ocean is released hundreds of miles away from land, it still washes up on beaches and coastal areas and affects everything in between. Every marine animal is affected by manmade chemicals released in the water. #climate

DAY 45: Yiwu International Trade City, in the eastern Chinese province of Zhejiang, is the world’s largest wholesale market for small commodities—and a plastic feast for the eyes. #banplastic #plasticpollution #action #climatechange #chemicals #marinelife #environment

DAY 41: What can we do to reduce plastic use 🤔🤔🤔
Notice all the plastic around you, the plastic bags you use, and change to biodegradable alternatives. They exist!! #SundayLunch #biodegradable #plasticfree

[PlasticInOceans @PlasticInOceans]

@sladecrypto @Stevewal63 Thank you for doing so!! Everyone should do the same.

DAY 39: Many marine organisms can’t distinguish common plastic items from food. Animals who eat plastic often starve because they can’t digest the plastic and it fills their stomachs, preventing them from eating real food 😭😭😭#plastickills #oceans #habitat @AnimalPlanet

[PlasticInOceans @PlasticInOceans]

DAY 38: More efforts are needed by governments to take leadership on environmental policy to cooperate and tackle this global scourge. Action is needed now, not ten years from #ItsTime #banplastic #biodegradable #ClimateChange #environmental
