Plastic bags left on the beaches end up in the sea which causes marine pollution (rubbish in the sea). Ocean currents carry plastic bags to feeding grounds. Plastic bags look like jelly fish in the water which are the main source of food for Leather back turtles. Turtles eat the plastic because they think they are their food which results in the turtles stomach becoming blocked. Turtles starve to death. Consequently by 2030 Leatherback turtles will be extinct.
