This image shows pictures of plastic packaging in the store, at home and in the recycle bin. We think we are "Reducing, Reusing and Recycling", but almost all of it ends up in the ocean!

​

• Only 5-6% of plastic actually gets recycled, no matter how much you put in your recycling bin.

• 76 million pounds of plastic packaging are created by U.S. companies every single day.

• 24 billion pounds of plastic enter the oceans every year, killing over one million marine animals.
