Ocean pollution

 Ocean pollution is all the trash that is in the ocean water. This garbage moves witch sea currents and creates big garbage islands. People pollute it mainly with cigarettes, plastic bags, food wrappers, and bottles. Cleaning that things are hard. The reason why is that there are micro pieces of plastic that are almost impossible to clean. It affects all of the animals that live in the ocean. They eat bigger pieces of trash because they think that it is their nourishment. For example, sea turtles eat plastic bags because they look like jellyfishes. So to help our oceans we definitely should recycle our garbage. We can also reduce our use of plastic (replacing it with reusable products).  While shopping we also should avoid products with microbeads (micro pieces of plastic) like some face scrubs, toothpaste, or body washes. A good thing to do is supporting organizations that clean marine pollution ( for example ). We should also clean beaches while we are on the summer holiday because they might end in the water. Helping to clean oceans is important because it affects all kinds of marine animals that may die because of this.
