I learned that and animal cant digest food after they consume plastic and will then die of hunger.

I learned that we probuce anough trash to fill the State of Texas 2 times and that many animals mistake plastic for food.

# data[].attributes.body
I have learned that even though plastic waste that never makes its it's way to the ocean still ends up being very dangerous to wild animals

# data[].attributes.body
20% of the trash comes from ships and platforms that are offshore.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that over 80%  of the oceans have plastic in the water. Plastic causes pollution to the animals. Plastic causes a huge problem to animals on land and in water. Less than 7% of plastic is recycled in America

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that plastic pollution is a big deal and needs to be solved. I didn't know that there was a garbage patch that was twice the size of Texas

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that plastic plays a huge roll in our daily lives. On average, Americans collectively use 2,500,000 plastic bottles every hour, but very few end up being recycled or reused.

# data[].attributes.body
I have learned that 5.25 trillion pieces of plastic infest the oceans and seas around the world. I also learned that cleaning it up wont do much to help because the amount of plastic is increasing dramatically.

# data[].attributes.body
In class I learned that there are 11 garbage patches in our oceans, and plastic bags take over 100 years to break down in landfills. Also animals can get their heads stuck in plastic and they can die.

# data[].attributes.body
Less then 7% of plastic is recycled is in Amarica. It takes hundreds of years for plastic to break down in landfills. There are 11 gyre in the 5 major oceans.

I learned that plastic doesn't get recycled and 2,205 pounds of plastic is in the ocean

Plastics cause animals eat plastic bags cuz they mistake it for food.An effect of animals eating plastic bags it erases the animal population.Animals choke on the plastic bags and die that way and they also die from it getting stuck then they can't eat.200 million dollars a year is spent cleaning the environment and the ocean.They have to pay for the cleaning machines that do some cleaning they have to hire people to work. There is a very low percent of plastic bags that are recycled.Birds and animals will die from eating them. So people need to pay a lot of attention to what they do with their plastic and they need to put plastic bags in recycling bins.

Plastics cause a huge threat to animals in land and sea. For example, organisms can die because they get it into their lungs and they are harmed. The sun burns the plastic and breaks it down; fish also nibble on that plastic which is not biodegradable. The plastic becomes microscopic. It's nonrenewable, and it gets into their lungs and kills them. They could become extinct. Another issue is that small particles of plastic can get into our brain and cause us harm. The plastic can cause us to forget things by killing our brain cells. In conclusion, YOU should reuse your plastic in creative ways or whatever and don't recycle it or throw it away.

I''ve learned quite a few things these past few days. One of the things I learned was that if animals consume the plastics, they can be harmed. The animals that consumed the plastic can get intestinal blockages and eventually die.

# data[].attributes.body
Over the past two class periods, i have learned a lot. One of the things that i have learned is that we use oil in our plastic which is not renewable. Although bioplastics  don't have oil and are renewable.

# data[].attributes.body
I have learned that over 90% of our ocean is plastic. I also learned that we use so much oil making plastic bottles that if we didn't we could fuel so many cars across the U.S.

# data[].attributes.body
I have learned that over 90% of pollution in the ocean is plastic and fish that eat it will most likely die.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that plastic can harm our environment in many ways. One way could be that many animals mistake plastic bags for food , and when the animals eat the plastic they could choke to death.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that we put most of our plastic in the ocean. The fish see the plastic and thinks its food. When they eat the plastic they can die because of the plastic.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that plastics don't get recycled and 2,205 pounds of plastic is in the ocean. I also learned that in January 1992 a cargo ship traveling from Hong Kong to Washington got caught in a storm and 4 containers went overboard and the were plastic rubber ducky's, plastic beavers , and plastic rubber turtles. I also learned Ocean plastic pollution is a massive environmental problem. Millions of tons of plastic waste enter the ocean every year, even plastic that goes in the trash can often ends up in the ocean. Great Pacific Garbage Patches threaten ocean animals.

# data[].attributes.body
While researching about bioplastics I learned many important things. I learned that not all of our plastic is actually recycled. I also learned that it takes hundreds of years just to break down a couple plastic bags. Lastly, I learned that if someone drank polluted water they could get kidney/liver cancer, damage the nervous system or even death. All this means we should change the way we work with plastics.

# data[].attributes.body
We need to stop using single use plastic containers.
