Ocean plastic pollution poses a grave ecological threat, imperiling marine life and ecosystems. An estimated 8 million tons of plastic enter the oceans annually, enduring for centuries and disintegrating into microplastics that pervade the food chain. Seabirds, turtles, and marine mammals ingest or become entangled in plastic debris, suffering injury or death.
Beyond its visible impacts, plastic pollution disrupts oceanic habitats and exacerbates climate change by releasing harmful chemicals. Mitigation demands global cooperation, including reduced plastic production, improved waste management, and heightened public awareness.
Preserving the oceans necessitates concerted efforts to stem this tide of plastic contamination.
