We have known that plastic production has increased, and although there are a number of studies that have shown increased concentrations of plastic up to the 1990s, these studies have not been able to demonstrate the expected increase in plastics in open ocean surface waters.

Many people now use reusable bags, recycle where possible and shop consciously by choosing to take food or drink items with less plastic, i very much hope that this awareness surrounding plastics will continue and spill over into other environmental issues such as our emissions.

I can't even stand the thought of it, when I go to the beach and see all the plastic on the waves and in the sand. It's found in most every bird stomach and in sea turtles and whales that starve to death, and the problem is getting much worse.
