How We Ruined the Oceans

After I read this article, I learned the ocean has way more damage to it by humans than what I would have guessed. Also reading about extinction, it almost seems over exaggerating but sadly its not. I did see the shrimp coming to an end though after watching a documentary and seeing the huge nets that fisherman use for catching them. But honestly, the people of some countries waste a lot of food and thats why we think we need to catch more so that we can keep up with the quality. Places like the chinese buffets, you always have those people who grab way to munch shrimp or lobster than they can hold down. So, it gets thrown away. But there is pretty much no way to fix that, just cause you cant always judge how much your stomach can hold.  Reading about the plastic in the ocean was also a shocker. 5.25 trillion pieces of plastic is quite a lot but the ocean is also 3/4 of the world. A lot of the plastic probably gets eaten though, which is bad. Of course. With the answer to not being able to remove the plastic is a let down but also makes sense to why we cannot remove it.
