Humans more often than not fall into the impression that plastic only affects the ocean and marine life not knowing it affects humans health as well, how you wonder, well  the chemicals from the plastics that some fishes and mammals are unable to distinguish from food and eat them or that they’re simply exposed to stay within them, once these are captured for humans to then consume it can be very toxic to them. This topic should be spoken more about not only adults but to this generation, previous weeks back I had a survey on how many people knew about the amount of trash within the ocean and most young adults did now know that approximately  8 million metric tons of trash makes its way to the ocean annually. This is a wide topic everyone should not only be aware of but should be part of the “how do we fix it?” and “what can we do?” because no action is taken, by 2025 there will be more fish than actual marine life.
