Did You Know?

Plastic reaches our oceans in surprising ways: litter blown by the wind, rivers carrying waste, and even tiny microplastics from clothes. This pollution harms all life on Earth, including humans, as plastic enters the food chain. Each piece of plastic that ends up in the environment is a nuisance and a hindrance to healthy ecosystems, but everyone can help reduce the problem by making better choices!
