A New Study Warns That 99% Of All Bird Species Will Ingest Plastic By 2050


birds plastic pollution

Plastic pollution is a huge problem for seabirds and other marine wild animals. There are many marine wild animals that sadly suffer from plastic pollution. These animals include turtles, whales, seals and even birds.

These marine wild animals ingest many forms of plastic, such as lighters, plastic bottle tops, plastic straws and plastic bags, to name a few.

This can result in these marine wild animals suffering tremendously, and eventually dying. It also results in animals like seabirds unknowingly feeding plastic to their young. Therefore, not only does this problem effect adult birds (and other adult animals), it affects younger ones too.
