EVERY YEAR about 650,000 MARINE MAMMALS ARE TRAPPED and KILLED BY GHOST NETS.
Ghost nets are a major contributor to the ocean plastics crisis.
Fishing lines and nets that break down never go away; they just become smaller pieces of plastic.
Marine animals eat these as food, which harms internal organs, keeps them from eating, and exposes them to toxic chemicals.
IF YOU ARE CONSUMING COMMERCIALLY CAUGHT FISHES, YOU ARE CONTRIBUTING TO THE PROBLEM and most likely You are consuming microplastics.
