Plastic in the ocean

The California Ocean Protection Council (OPC) has proposed instituting plastic bag use fees and banning plastic take-out containers as part of a strategy to reduce ocean litter.

According to the Long Beach-based Algalita Marine Research Foundation, 60 to 80% of the world's ocean litter is made up of plastic.
