Have you ever wondered how destructive sea pollution can be ? Plastic bags are made from oil therefore they take hundreds of years to decompose. They are used to carry home shopping but when they are finished with they end up as rubbish in our bins! Many of our plastic bags end up in the sea which causes a problem for marine life!
Have you ever wondered what is happening to Leatherback Turtles? Some rubbish is carelessly dumped by roadsides, in fields or on beaches. Ocean currents carry plastic bags to feeding grounds. Plastic bags look like jellyfish in the water therefore Turtles eat them beacuse jellyfish are their main source of food.. The Turtles stomach becomes blocked resulting in the turtle starving to death. If this keeps on happening the Turtles will be extinct by 2030.
