Facts about Plastic
- On a yearly basis, around 8 million metric tons of plastic ends up in our oceans, seas and rivers.
- It takes approximately 450 years for the ocean to break down man-made plastic items.
- “Microplastics” – A smaller piece of plastic. These microplastics have now made their way into our diets through the sea food we consume.
- 100 million marine animals die every year from plastics invading their homes.
- By the year 2050 there will be more plastic in the ocean than fish.
