Man Made Fibers
We have already discussed how plastic waste directly traps and suffocate the marine life to death but it also harms them in other ways by entering their stomachs and bloodstream that is threatening for both the animals and even the humans. The tests conducted at the deepest depth of these water bodies were as astonishing, scientists from Newcastle University decided to have the crustaceans as their subject, a species that inhabit 10,980 meters below sea level in the Mariana Trench. Every crustacean that had been examined was found to have ingested different man-made fibers and material including PVA, PVC, nylon, and plastics. But how does this affect and concern humans, one may ask.
