Dan Godot handed me a plastic can.
It is filled with pieces of garbage: fishing lines, ropes, plastic bag fragments, remnants of plastic packaging, ends of old balloons and blue, jagged buckets, about 20c size.
224 pieces of plastic were found in the stomach of a turtle.
Plastic forms solid knots in the stomach, causing digestive problems.
When turtles eat normal foods, they start to ferment and produce gas.
These turtles are called \"floats\" and Bob is helpless on the water.
They can\'t eat and their metabolism goes down.
Mr. Godoy said: \"I have seen pictures of turtles, they stay on the surface for so long that they are sunburned and their shells start peeling off while they are alive, \"A PhD candidate at the University of Messi, who is working on the biology of turtles.
At least 44 of marine birds are known to eat plastic.
Last year, a dead sperm whale found in the Aegean Sea had a variety of garbage on its calves, including 100 plastic bags.
Floating plastic bags look almost the same as jellyfish, as do fish eggs and tiny plastic resin particles --nurdles -
Used to make plastic.
Godoy says most of the plastic turtles eat is clear and white.
\"Turtles cannot distinguish between natural prey and plastic.
\"Plastic is filled with chemicals to create useful qualities such as flexibility or transparency.

Building on the Plastic Pollution Coalition, support the BYO bag initiative on waihek island, which aims to make plastic bags on the island free of charge.
She said that some chemicals, including double phenol (BPA)and hormone-
Destruction of chemicals known as phthalate is related to cancer, diabetes, obesity, Alzheimer\'s disease, autism, and some sexual problems, such as sexual dysfunction, infertility and infertility in humans.
In New Zealand, the double phenol a is allowed, and the plastic containing the double phenol a is our canned food.
In some countries, including EU countries, China, Malaysia and the United States, its use has been banned.
In about five years, wind and ocean currents have dumped, dropped, buried, or blown out of the landfill into 11 patches in the ocean.
The most famous is the Pacific garbage belt in the northwest of the Pacific Ocean, which stretches about 700 square kilometers.
Midway Atoll is located in the northwest Pacific Ocean, only 2000 km from Honolulu and only 4000 km from Japan.
Evidence of human \"civilization\" is scattered on the shore: toothbrushes, mugs, bulbs and lighters of all colors. And 8.
Six tons of nets are washed up every year, often with seals and turtles.
The waters around the island are littered with plastic debris eaten by fish and mammals, and birds return to their young birds.
Almost all albatross young birds are plastic-fed.
Researchers found 17 caps in the body of an adult bird.
A new study by Dr. Hideshige Takada, a Japanese scientist at Tokyo University of Agricultural Technology, shows that plastic fragments can breathe in toxins from seawater.
Dr. Takada is working on persistent organic pollutants (POPs)-
Chemicals, including hazardous pesticides such as DDT and flame of textiles. retardants.
Persistent organic pollutants are slowly decomposed.
They can be dissolved in oil, fat, and plastic (a \"solid oil\").
\"The concentration of marine plastic debris is millions of times higher than that in seawater,\" he said . \".
Dr. Takada\'s research shows that microplastics absorb chemicals from the surrounding seawater and are transferred to the gastric tissue of the plasticEat seabirds.
POPs can damage DNA, affect the thyroid system and brain, disrupt hormones, and weaken the immune system.
In 1998, a large number of deaths of seals in the North Sea fell to high levels of popularity in the ocean.
MS Cohen said there was more to be done in addition to cleaning up our beaches.
The plastic pollution alliance emphasizes four Rs-
Reduce, reuse, recycle and trash.
The world produces about 0. 225 billion tons of plastic every year.
Last year, New Zealand imported nearly 10 or 00 tons of plastic, which was used for packaging. Single-
According to research on sustainable coastlines, the use of disposable plastics accounts for 72 of New Zealand\'s beach waste.
Spokesman Camden haut said the public has the ultimate power to stop the plastic problem.
\"While nurdles on the beach look like a manufacturing problem, it\'s really caused by the need for plastic --
He said: \"packaging products.
\"Individuals can influence this by choosing to buy fewer plastic packaging products.
Mr. Godoy said: \"Basically, we need to be aware of the consequences of our actions.
\"We always see the ocean and the environment as separate from us, but it is an integral part of us.
It is our responsibility to acknowledge and understand what impact we will have in the day. to-day basis.
\"Drink bottled plastic beverage bottles since 500.
About $20 for steel or glass beverage bottles.
In New Zealand, more than 40,000 plastic shopping bags are dumped in landfill every hour.
Cotton bags or sacks can be used thousands of times.
