Why Does Plastic In The Ocean Matter at Harold Eugene blog

Why Does Plastic In The Ocean Matter. Ocean plastic can be broken into smaller pieces — known as microplastics — by sun exposure and wave action, after which it can find its way into. After some months or years at sea, plastic breaks down into smaller and smaller pieces, battered by waves and storms, eventually to sizes smaller than a grain of sand. If you want to explore the plastic inputs from each of the world’s rivers, the ocean cleanup project provides a beautiful interactive map where you can see this in more detail. We need to do something to save the ocean If we continue to release more plastics to the ocean, we’ll have more in our surface waters. Microplastics enter the ocean through the breakdown of larger plastic debris, a process driven by environmental factors such as uv. The gpml has played a major role in bringing together different actors to strengthen coordination, implement and scale up efforts to tackle plastic pollution and marine litter worldwide. The scenarios of continued emissions growth are what we’d expect:
