Plastic Bags- look like jellyfish and are eaten by animals. Ingesting plastic bags poisons the animals and can suffocate them.
Oil- Coats animals, making them unable to feed and breath effectively
Bottle Caps- Bottle caps are eaten by birds because they mistake them for food. Since the plastic is hard to digest, the bottle caps stay in the stomach, leaving less space for normal food.
To help reduce problems caused by marine debris, we can reduce, reuse and recycle our plastics.
