consumption of goods increases and therefore the demand for plastic. The latter results in a greater pollution consist of 75 percent of plastic. The amounts of plastic waste end up largely in rivers that flow again to oceans and seas. The quantity of plastic that finally floats in oceans is called the plastic soup. In order to maintain a responsible ecosystem‚ we should decrease the plastic soup. The question is‚ how can this objective be achieved. First of all‚ it is necessary to amplify why this

INTRODUCTION Global warming is the increase in the average temperature of Earth’s near-surface air and oceans since the mid-20th century and its projected continuation. Global surface temperature increased 0.74 ± 0.18 °C (1.33 ± 0.32 °F) between the start and the end of the 20th century. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) concludes that most of the observed temperature increase since the middle of the 20th century was very likely caused by increasing concentrations

one time‚ Nehru was right with his reasoning. The world once had breathtaking seas‚ rolling hills‚ and sandy beaches. However‚ recently‚ climate change has taken a toll on the glorious Earth. Those breathtaking seas? The increase of acidity in the ocean is eradicating the existence of coral reefs‚ and‚ in the future‚ the Earth’s waters will be less vibrant. The rolling hills? The hotter temperatures are creating severe weather occurrences‚ such as mudslides‚ that are obliterating mountainsides. The

Climate Change Impacts on the Ocean Climate change has widespread effects. It doesn’t just affect weather and temperature. It will also have lasting effects on the ocean and the ecosystems within it. Coral reefs get hit hard by the temperature of the water getting warmer. “Warming of as little as 1°C causes coral bleaching‚ a state in which the tissues of the coral become colorless because of the loss of the zooxanthellae”(Hoegh-Guldberg‚Donner‚pg. 9‚ par 3). This bleaching can stress the reefs

When these materials find their way into the ocean‚ marine organisms suffer toxic effects and seafood is often contaminated (“Ocean Pollution” 4). This is causing the marine life all around the world to get hurt by human activity. By doing this‚ fish are also affected and therefore people are too because we eat fish. A writer from the New
