Millions of animals die every year due to entanglement, ingestion, or starvation caused by plastics.

Plastic pollution significantly affects nearly 700 species of marine animals, leading to death or reproductive problems.

Microplastics are small plastic particles found in many marine species' diets, potentially causing digestive issues and death.

Land animals, such as elephants and tigers, are also affected by plastic ingestion, which may lead to starvation, organ damage, and death.

Plastic ingestion can affect reproduction. For example, oysters are producing less eggs, meaning less population.

Millions of animals die each year from entanglement, plastic ingestion, or starvation due to plastic pollution.

Nearly 700 species of marine animals, including endangered ones, are impacted by plastic pollution; many die because of it.

Nearly every seabird species eats plastic, often leading to starvation or death.

Starvation is a major cause of animal deaths resulting from plastic ingestion.

Globalisation introduced diverse food options globally, blending local and international dishes.

Globalisation allows for easy access to music from all over the world, influencing worldwide tastes.

Globalization influences fashion styles and creativity, blending cultural elements into modern styles.

Land animals, like elephants and tigers, are also impacted by consuming plastics; this can cause death.
