How Does Plastic Pollution Affect Marine Life and How Can We Reduce It? Requested Post

I got an email, which I dismissed as spam, but then I got another one. So I looked at it, then I replied, and she replied back to me. So by request, I decided to go ahead and re-post it.

Anna said she would like my opinion on this article. My opinion is this: When I go to the beach, which is often, THE ONLY LITTER I SEE IS PLASTIC! There is no paper, there is no metal, there is very little glass. The litter on the beaches in Cayman is 99.9999% PLASTIC!

I think the remedy should start with a fundamental modification of almost all plastic manufacturing, all new plastic should be made biodegradable. (photobiodegradable). After that is done, then start cleaning up what’s out there.

So here’s the emails, in screengrab form, and the aritcle, plus a link to the actual page.
