Jay Sawyer of Chicago is quite concerned about the fact that plastic waste has a bad impact on marine wildlife. Fish, marine mammals, and seabirds are being injured and killed by plastic pollution. He has recently made a research that 700 species would go extinct because of it. The deaths are caused due to plastic ingestion, starvation, suffocation, and entanglement. Talking about the report by Oceana, a conservation group, Sawyer illustrates some of what we know about how plastic affects sea turtles and marine mammals in United States waters.
