How to Rid the Seas of 'Plastic Soup'
Garbage in the oceans is growing at an alarming rate. 80% of this waste is plastic and for it to fully biodegrade, high temperatures are needed and that's a problem seeing as this plastic is floating in the ocean. So since this plastic can't biodegrade fully, billions of fragments are floating around. This causes it to be absorbed into marine life. Some people are proposing to pay fishermen to "fish for litter", but that can't solve the problem about the 'Plastic Soup'. Obviously, we need to prevent it going into oceans in the first place.
