Plankton Eat Plastic And So Does The Rest Of The Food Chain, Humans Included

Scientists and filmmakers collaborated to capture how plastic from ocean waste is ingested by the zooplankton in a study and a short environmental film. The researchers emphasized that microplastics pose danger from the planktons to the bigger creatures that consume them and even up to the humans sitting on top of the food chain. The filmmakers encouraged more people to help ensure our oceans are plastic-free.
