2.3 million tons! Research: Global marine plastic pollution has reached an "unprecedented level"

In a paper titled "A Growing Plastic Smog" published on March 8 in the peer-reviewed research journal Plos One, researchers called on governments around the world to take sweeping action to address the "unprecedented plastic pollution" of the world's oceans.

The plastics break down over time into minute particles that cannot be detected by the naked eye, but find their way into the marine ecosystem and into the seafood humans consume.

No one knows for certain what the long-term damage will be to marine life and humans, but the study placed much of the blame on the plastics industry for failing to recycle or design for recyclability.
