Plastic & Plover Chick JMC_7732ASC2

Add to Lightbox

Plastic ruins the environment for a Plover chick and for people. National Geographic reports: In 2012, the Convention on Biological Diversity in Montreal declared that all seven sea turtle species, 45 percent of marine mammal species, and 21 percent of seabird species were affected by eating or becoming entangled in plastic. The same year 10 scientists unsuccessfully called on the world’s nations to officially classify the most harmful plastic as hazardous, which would give their regulatory agencies “the power to restore affected habitats.” " Laboratory studies of fish have found plastics can cause harm to reproductive systems and stress the liver." - https://www.nationalgeographic.com/environment/article/microplastics-are-in-our-bodies-how-much-do-they-harm-us.
