Animals in and around the oceans are eating plastic. It has been thought that this was because it looks like food. It more smell like food and triggers a feeding response.

We have created a serious problem. Animal are eating a lot of plastic, some of it very fine plastic. We don't know what the consequences are going to be. In what way will all this plastic harm the animals that eat it. They can't digest it and they gain no food value from it. One thing that is certain is the fact that we are going to ingest the plastic too. We get it from the fish we eat.
No one has any idea what this will do for our health.
Do you ever feel like life is a giant lab experiment and we are the lab animals. Sadly it is.
