大多数的塑料垃圾最终会流入海洋。在太平洋,塑料垃圾和其它废弃物已形成了一座面积为160万平方公里的岛屿,相当于整个蒙古。
Every year, about 8 million tons of plastic waste flow into the ocean. It is estimated that the total weight of plastic waste will reach 12 billion tons by 2050, more than the total weight of oceanic fish.
每年大约有800万吨的塑料垃圾流入海洋。据估计,至2050年,塑料垃圾的总重量将达120亿吨,超过海洋鱼类的总重量。
This plastic waste kills life in the oceans and on the land alike by filling in their stomachs so they cannot eat, or winding around their bodies so they cannot breathe. It pollutes the earth and prevents plants' roots from digging deep into the ground. Plastic micro-particles also join the water cycle and enter the bodies of animals, including humans. As humans are at the top of the food pyramid, plastic micro-particles accumulate inside our bodies.
塑料垃圾导致海洋动物和陆地动物死亡--塑料进入动物体内导致它们无法进食;塑料缠绕动物的身体导致它们无法呼吸。塑料污染着地球,阻止植物的根深埋。塑料微粒还会进入水循环,从而进入到动物(包括人类)体内。由于人类处于食物金字塔的顶端,因此塑料微粒会在我们体内积聚。
Want to do something to change the situation? Don't get plastic bags at the supermarket take your own reusable one instead. Give up fast delivery lunches and cook or go to the restaurant instead. Get into the habit of sorting your garbage.
