The SEA LIFE Trust works globally to reduce plastic pollution.

The five secrets to reduce plastic waste and marine ecosystem pollution are as follows.

Reduce plastic waste, recycle and recycle, recycle plastic products as much as possible and recycle all waste!

If the product is packed too much, please refuse to purchase and complain to the manufacturer.

Pay attention to toiletries including beads. These small plastic beads are included in some cosmetics, soaps, shower gel, toothpaste. They are so small that they can not be effectively filtered from the waste before entering the river, lake or sea.

Next, let's pick up garbage when you are at the beach! Next time you are on the beach, remove the garbage from the beach over a period of one or two minutes.

One of the greatest effects of plastic contamination is the impact on marine organisms. Seals, sea turtles, and even whales are entangled with plastic mesh. If plastics restrict their ability to move and eat, they will starve to death. Or plastic will dig into the skin of the animal and cause severely infected wounds. Soda can ring like a jellyfish is the most popular food when eating plastic bags tortoise. Sea birds eat bottle caps and large foam cups. Microplastic debris is like plankton, a small creature consumed by many marine animals. Since plastic fragments can give the animal fullness, you can not eat enough real food to get the necessary nutrients. Plastic also prevents the digestive system of animals from eating. According to a survey in 2015, about 700 species of marine organisms are intertwined with plastics and are eaten.

The plastic in the sea is the result of human cruelty. As the worldwide annual consumption of plastics increases year by year, the amount of plastic waste finally released into the ocean has also increased dramatically. Furthermore, in addition to adverse effects on marine ecosystems, plastic contamination affects sightseeing, fishery, and aquaculture sectors, which can adversely affect the economy. However, much effort has been made to reduce oceanic plastic contamination, such as cleaning beaches and water bodies, preventing plastics from entering the sea. As part of the fight against plastic contamination, especially in the ocean, the use of multiple forms of plastic products in many countries is restricted or prohibited. Increased consciousness of numerous sewage treatment around the world and adverse effects of plastics may help protect the ocean.

Plastic contamination affects our water and marine life, our food chain and public health. The good news is that the global effort to reduce or eliminate the consumption of disposable plastics is gaining momentum. The A-Z list covers regional, national, city and enterprise efforts to focus on plastic straws and plastic bags to limit the consumption and sale of disposable plastics. We will renew it on a regular basis, additional disposable plastic regulations or prohibited plastic bags and straws, as well as plastic cups, bottles, tools etc.
