In Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Xi’an, PM2.5 concentration levels in all four cities exceed World Heath Organisation (WHO) air quality guidelines. This means higher health risks to the cardiovascular system, cerebrovascular system and an increase in the probability of cancer and premature death. Smog hangs heavy over Beijing, Shanghai and Hong Kong, where children grow up with asthma and other respiratory illnesses. http://www.greenpeace.org/eastasia/campaigns/air-pollution/

In 1992, twenty containers full of rubber ducks were lost in the sea from a ship going from China to Seattle. By 1994, some had been tracked to Alaska, while others reached Iceland in 2000. The ducks have been seen in the Arctic, Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. (http://plastic-pollution.org/

People need at least 70 liters of fresh water daily for drinking, cooking and cleaning. As populations near or along bodies of water become urbanized, their industrial and agricultural waste often seeps into the nearby freshwater supply, making it either unusable or hazardous.

Plastic creates toxic pollution at every stage of its existence: manufacture, use, and disposal. Plastic is a material that the Earth cannot digest. Every bit of plastic that has ever been created still exists, including the small amount that has been incinerated and has become toxic particulate matter.

Facts on the pollution in our world:

- In the Los Angeles area alone, 10 metric tons of plastic fragments — like grocery bags, straws and soda bottles — are carried into the Pacific Ocean every day!!!

- Due to its low density, plastic waste is readily transported long distances from source areas and concentrates in gyres, systems of rotating ocean currents. The North Pacific Gyre, also known as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, is twice the size of Texas (and growing) and consists mostly of small plastic particles suspended at, or just below, the surface, where fish and other animals mistake the particles for food.

In the Garbage Patch, plastic outnumbers fish food like zooplankton six to one. The Garbage Patch is only one of five such convergence zones, which in total cover 40 percent of the ocean.
