Plastic Turtles


In Australia Sydney’s Taronga Zoo is reporting unheard of levels of turtles with small pieces of plastic in them. They have consumed so much plastic that they are actually excreting rubber and plastic bags in their tanks. This doesn't only apply to turtles; much of the other marine life is consuming plastic as well.  We may even be eating plastic when we eat fish caught from the ocean.
