Harming our oceans

Harming our oceans
It’s a nice sunny day and your family decides to go to the beach and have a picnic and a few games of cricket. You’re getting tired and go and get some food and most of this food will be wrapped with glad wrap, plastic and bags, you enjoyed your food but what happens to the rubbish after. Do you walk the few steps to the bin, put it back into your bag to throw away later or do you just litter! Littering is becoming a huge issue that’s affecting our ocean and the animals beneath. Most people don’t take the time and walk the few steps to throw away their rubbish instead they just leave it on the beach. Their probably thinking it won’t matter if I don’t throw my rubbish away everyone else will, well no if everyone thought like that our earth would like a dump. Once you leave the rubbish the rubbish will eventually wash into the oceans and make our oceans not suitable to swim in and that’s not all.

The rubbish will sink into the oceans ground and many different and unique animals will come upon it. They might think its food and eat it or they might get trapped in these plastic bags. Whales, dolphins, seals, turtles and many more creatures are getting harmed because of our doing. Not just big animals but little ones such as different sorts of fish. There’s also another issue with oil spills everywhere. Oil spills are poisoning many animals and is a potential health hazard for us and so we can’t swim in the beaches. If you care about these animals start helping and doing your bit.
