Plastic in the Oceans

While the fact that the Oceans are full of plastic is no news, the sheer amount of plastic in our Oceans is leading to mass death among fish and sea creatures that either mistake the plastic as food or accidentally ingest it some other way.

The media headlines acts of heroism in instances of people saving distressed sea creatures from plastic deaths and injuries, but never actually headlines ways to help reduce the amounts of plastic in the seas.
