Plastic: Why Do We Care?

• In the Pacific Ocean there's an area twice the size of Texas, known as the Pacific Gyre, where the plastic to plankton ratio was measured as more than 6:1 in 2001. In 2008, the ratio had increased to 28:1.
• We now know that 90% of marine trash is made of plastic - and 80% comes from land and local watersheds.
• Plastic is being mistaken for krill, eaten by fish, and is now entering our food chain.

We can all make a difference! 

Reduce your use of disposable plastic!
