Even though humans are the ones creating such mess‚ they are not the only ones who are affected by it. Marine life and their environment are constantly being hurt due to the 8.4 million tons of plastic waste that accumulate in the ocean per year (Karpus‚ 2012). Unless plastic awareness and waste management methods are enforced‚ plastic will continue to harm life on Earth. The manufacturing of plastic as well as the dangerous chemicals found within the plastic has become an evident issue regarding
