"The Effect of Plastic Waste on Marine Life"- Today, we commonly use a range of plastic products in everyday life. Due to their lightweight and durable qualities we find plastics in a host of different products. Unfortunately, plastic ends up in the marine environment. #plastic

[Bill Omondi @ClintoneBill]

Plastic pollution arguably poses bigger threat to the plants and animals including humans. Very little of the plastic we discard every day is recycled/incinerated in waste-to-energy facilities. Much of it ends up in landfills leaching potentially toxic substances in environment

"How Can We Reduce Plastic Pollution in the Ocean?"- Experts estimate that about 8 million tons of plastic enter our oceans every year.

[War on Plastics @PlasticsWar]

Plastic bags DO NOT belong in our oceans. It is disgusting that this has become the norm and a reality that is so accepted. What are you doing in your life to stop plastic pollution?

Every single year, over 1.4 billion pounds of garbage and plastic are dumped into the ocean. Having gone on for decades, as the years pile up, more and more garbage, notably plastics, are taking up space that was once occupied by ocean water, plants, fauna, animals, and oxygen.

[Beyond Plastics @PlasticsBeyond]

If you own stock in @Nestle you're partly to blame for the world's quickly worsening #plasticpollutioncrisis. At today's meeting, we urge you to commit the co. to 50% reuse and refill by 2030 (sooner would be better). https://t.co/IcI61m2QUh

Great tip from @ReduceWasteNow #plasticpollution #plasticfree #Sustainability #recycling

[Plastic Pollution @avoidpollution_]

The process of recycling is a continuous loop, that works when collected materials from garbage are turned into products. Then these products are bought and used again. #plasticpollution #recycling #plastic #plasticfree

[Eco For Life @ecoforlifeeu]

Harmful #airpollution now affects 99% of the population of our planet. The question is: How bad will it get before we all decide it's time to do something about it? 😞

#PlasticPollution is accumulating on land and in the ocean, and neither individual action nor national policy is enough to solve the problem (although both are important!)
