1.Making deep sea become the  largest global marine litter
depocentre.Besides,microbeads are commonly white or opaque in colour, and research has found microbeads to be commonly mistaken for plankton by many surface feeding fish species. Ingestion of plastics by aquatic organisms is one of the major deleterious environmental impacts in the marine environment.A growing concern related to microplastics is that they can also enter the human food chain through ingestion of fish, shellfish and filter feeders,causing potential human health impacts.

# data[].attributes.body
2. Governments all over the world have strategies to ban the sale of lightweight bags, charge customers for lightweight bags and/or generate taxes from stores who sell them.For example,in Denmark, legislation was passed that enforces plastic bag manufacturers to pay tax based on the weight of plastic bags. Retail stores are able to pass the cost of the tax on to consumers. Today, plastic bags cost consumers between 37 and 65 US cents.In addition,in South Africa, Legislation passed to place a ban on plastic bags b30 μm thick. Plastic bags N30 μm were subjected to the imposition of a levy. Enforcement of the plastic bag ban has been poor. Acceptance of the levy by consumers has seen high levels of consumption continue.

# data[].attributes.body
3.In 2016,the UK government announced plans to ban microbeads in cosmetics and personal care products by the end of 2017.

# data[].attributes.body
4.(1) Monitoring can ensure that interventions are being adhered to. In South Africa,insufficient monitoring of plastic bag consumption resulted in an ineffective plastic bag prevention scheme; the levy was too small, and, overtime,reductions in plastic bag use ceased.Besides,monitoring of microplastic beads inwastewater effluent could reveal baseline data of microplastic releases into the aquatic or marine environment.
(2)Following the ban of the sale and manufacture of cosmetics and personal care products containing microbeads, the UK government announced plans to gather evidence of environmental impacts on the marine environment from microbeads in household and industrial cleaning products, as well as microfibers.

# data[].attributes.body
5.As far as I know,In China,legislation passed to ban shops,supermarkets,
and sales outlets from providing free plastic bags that are b25 μm thick. For bags N25 μm, a levy was put in place. Exemptions from the ban were in place for hygiene reasons in the handling and storage of fresh food.

The development of economy based on sacrificing the environment is not worth at all. Every single country around the globe has faced environmental problems, in different years. Some of them paid attention before there are actual environmental problems existed. For instance, Canada requires a environmental detection before every project Canada ever started, even small businesses like operating a convenient store still requires a environmental detection. However, China just realized the risk of developing economy by using environment as the cost far more recent years. The cost of remediation of environmental problems are way higher than the cost of environmental protection in advance

Problems will never solved by solely relying on authoritative organizations such as government. Government has the responsibility to advocate the actions, indeed, it is really the public's job to do the work no matter individually or collaboratively. Individuals are responsible to supervise others.

Pollution comes not only from industry's waste, but also tourism.
Government can out stage some policies to tourists, for instance paying penalties for carelessly drop litters.Furthermore, regulations on fishing industry still matter. Environmental protections are not only what in mentioned in the article. protect the ecosystem in a macro perspective is the ultimate goal.
