An idea to reduce
the amount of marine debris would be to implement strongly enforced laws on
discarding fishing gear in the ocean. Make environmentally friendly, reusable
choices the more affordable option for individual consumers and larger corporations. Choose environmentally friendly cleaners or
hygiene products. Educate your
friends/family about how pollution affects humans and the environment around
us. You might motivate them to join you in your efforts. Even watching documentaries like the Albatross film with friends might speak to them and get them on board to live a greener lifestyle. I think adding a substance to non-biodegradable items that would stop animals from ingesting it could have a huge impact on all the aquatic and terrestrial species that are dying because their body cannot digest the material. Having proper water sanitation in certain countries could help with over nutrient or harming the species living in that body of water. Solutions can start ‘small’ on the local level
but if you get enough people involved, then they can work their way up to
having a huge, positive impact on the environment.
