Pollution is like throwing a big party into the ocean, and not everyone wants to be there. When we put plastic, oil, or toxic chemicals in the sea, some creatures get hurt, but others find new homes and even thrive. Sometimes the ocean becomes a colorful mess of strange shapes and sizes, and that’s how pollution changes life underwater.
Examples
- A turtle mistakes a plastic bag for a jellyfish and eats it
- Fish grow around a bottle that floats in the sea
- Birds are covered in black oil from a spill
