Samuel, Thijs and Twan put together this mini explainer video for a school project. We were asked to make a video about the suffering of animals due to all the plastic that ends up in the water. Share this video with your friends, so more people become aware of the effects of plastic on animals.

Did you know that 9 tons of plastic end up in the water every minute! Not only plastic that is thrown into the sea is part of this, but a lot of plastic that is thrown out onto the street eventually ends up in the sea as well. This plastic never decays. It disintegrates into very small pieces of micro plastic. Many animals in the sea ingest this microplastic. Also, many animals choke on larger pieces of plastic because they regard it for food. Or animals get entangled in the plastic like this turtle. So next time, think before you throw away plastic.
