The people used three hundred million tons of plastic goods per year out of which barely two million plastic bags are told that they are recycled and other remaining 298 million tones are thrown into the sea. It is estimated that if speed remain same than plastic in the oceans in the next five years will be more little fish.
One million plastic bottles are bought in the world every minute. Experts claim that more than 90% of the world’s ten major rivers are dumping garbage into the oceans every day. Even more dangerous is the fact that 70,000 microplastics are consumed every day by the plastic utensils used in food and drink. In addition, the use of food synthetic products is increasing.
A survey report has revealed that 8.3 billion tons of plastic waste has been dumped into the oceans since 1958, which is equivalent to the weight of 800,000 Eiffel Towers.
An international survey report states that half the species of marine organisms have become rare in the last 25 years. These fish and other living marine waste are forced to eat plastic. As a result, their species is rapidly disappearing. A far-flung small tuna fish was available in large quantities along the coast of Karachi. Now its number is gradually decreasing.
