Question

The ocean I unfortunately understand, what with all the plastic we throw in it. But I just read it was in fresh fallen antarctic snow! How?

Answer 1

because plastic breaks down into smaller pieces and since they aren’t biodegradable, they stay where they are… and climates tend to change so when they do change they spread everywhere.

everyone overuses plastic and you will see plastic every where you go. it’s that bad that we even have microplastics inside us
