We're not only harming our lives, but also those of all marine animals which are directly threatened by the plastic we produce and use!

[UN Biodiversity @UNBiodiversity]

We use tons of plastic — from packaging to toys and everyday tools.

But where does it all go?

Unfortunately, much of it makes its way to the ocean, causing harm to marine life. Once there, it doesn't break down easily & continues to pollute ecosystems
