Plastic pollution in sea has almost crossed worrying levels and requires immediate and significant action to stop such waste from reaching the world's oceans. If the plastic waste continues to flow into the oceans at the current rate, then in the coming years ocean plastic will outweigh all the fishes in the sea. Turtles, Seals and other marine animals are badly affected by plastic. In other words, "we have disturbed the earth in such a way that according to one report, there will be more plastic in oceans than fishes by 2050". Leonardo DiCaprio (an actor and environmental activist) has rightly said: “Plastic pollution is a global issue: killing wildlife, contaminating our oceans and waters, and lasting far longer than it is used.”
Now the question that arises here is: how does plastic effect? Plastic releases harmful chemicals into the surrounding soil, which...
