As plastic waste accumulates on the seabed, it can disrupt the balance of marine ecosystems, affecting the biodiversity and overall health of the marine environment. The impact of plastic pollution on marine life extends beyond individual animals to entire populations and species. For endangered ...
Effects of Plastic on Marine Life Fish, marine mammals, and seabirds are being injured and killed by plastic pollution, and it is believed that 700 species could go extinct because of it. Current estimates suggest that at least 267 species worldwide have been affected, including 84% of sea t...
it is true that the waste produced would also increase significantly. As finding dumping grounds become more and more difficult, a lot of the wastes find their way to the ocean beds. These wastes that are dumped in the ocean remain there for a long time, affecting marine life. ...
Pollution is a serious problem that is affecting our environment more and more each day. There are many different types of pollution, such as air pollution, water pollution, and soil pollution. Air pollution, for example, is caused by factories releasing harmful chemicals into the air, which ca...
