Humans are using far too much plastic and most of us don't realize what kind of problems it is causing for the animals that live there or how it affects the entire planet. The June 2018 cover of National Geographic magazine is helping make people more aware of the problem. It talks about how much trash people on this planet produce each year and even each day and how that trash is changing our world and the animal kingdom- animals are eating plastic and getting caught up in it. Shocking images fill up the pages. Birds are wrapped in plastic bags, turtles are caught in plastic fishing nets, and fish are eating small pieces of plastic that break free from the floating masses of trash that float around in the oceans. The photos are shameful and devastating.
