Care for the Ocean

Phenomenal Friday Fact

Each year, more than 260 million tons of plastic products are created, many of which will end up in a landfill or the ocean. When in water, some plastics release chemicals that can damage habitats for marine animals and contaminate the seafood we eat. Some animals might even mistake the plastic for food and die. You can help care for the ocean by taking part in community clean-ups, disposing of trash responsibly, recycling and reusing items, and more. 

Watch the video to discover more ways you can help care for the ocean.

    At school we are learning about endangered animals. A Lot of them are ocean animals! We need to care for our oceans! Make these waters cleaner! But why do people chuck rubbish in the water? I know the answer. a lot of people are good, but some of ‘em are bad! so the bad people do not care so they just chuck rubbish everywhere! I am very sad….. animals are getting extinct and endangered really quickly.
