Plastic now outweighs plankton in the world's oceans

Study: Plastic in 'Great Pacific Garbage Patch' increases 100-fold

They say in the video that there is now 48 times more plastic than plankton in the Pacific Ocean. Wow. Last I checked, plastic is not part of the food chain. And think about it: we've only been dumping plastic in the ocean for about 60 years. Probably safe to assume that in another 50-60 years there will be at least 100 times more plastic than plankton, if things don't change. Yikes.

The scientists also pointed to a previous Scripps study that found nine percent of fish had plastic waste in their stomachs. 

Almost one out of every ten fish in the ocean is eating the plastic already. 50 years from now, 1 out of 5 fish? Assuming there are still fish.
