Save The Ocean

Save The Ocean

Of the 260 million tons of plastic the world produces each year, about 10 percent ends up in the Ocean, Seventy percent of the mass eventually sinks, damaging life on the seabed. Every single time you leave a bottle on the beach thinking someone will pick it up ,most likely it will end up in the ocean then a poor little sea animal won’t know what is is and try to eat it or get stuck in it, eventually they will die. So every single time you leave a plastic/glass bottle or can on the beach you are risking an  animals life  just because you were to lazy to throw it out. I understand that you might have forgotten it on the beach because you it dropped or it fell out of your bag, you were holding to much stuff and didn’t realize. I get it but next time take an extra look to see if you left a bottle, can, glass bottle or anything plastic because that one look can save a life.

With all of this plastic it can also be ruining your time at the beach too, would you want to swim in a ocean with a bunch of plastic in it? i know i wouldn’t. Or when you go to the beach their are plastic bottles and cans, or your favorite spot at the beach has  has a bunch of garbage theri. Also when you swim in the ocean there could be bacterin in the garbage and you could get sick or get an infection. We need to save the ocean i am speaking for the ocean because the ocean can’t speak for itself.

Billions of pounds of plastic can be found the ocean, that make up about 40 percent of the world’s ocean surfaces. At current rates plastic is expected to outweigh all the fish in the sea by 2050. When I learned about this I was shocked to imagine that the ocean soon to be covered in garbage. Just take a seconded to think it is a nice day  and you and your family and friends were planning to go to the beach but when you went to the beach it was covered in trash plastic garbage. So I hope after reading this now you understand how important it is to be careful with plastic,glass, and cans. Because we want to save this world but luckily there are amazing people in this world who all ready cleaning oceans and making this world beautiful the future lays in are hands so let’s make the right decision.
