Your Signature Is Needed: Baby sea turtles are eating toxic plastics

A baby sea turtle has just hatched a few weeks ago and is emerging from the shore to head into the water for the very first time. But as this tiny creature takes its first bite of what it thinks is food, it’s very likely that it is actually TOXIC PLASTIC that could harm or even KILL this innocent newborn turtle. Our oceans are being overrun by plastic pollution, and it’s killing precious marine animals like sea turtles, dolphins, fish, and seabirds when they choke, become entangled, or ingest this dangerous plastic waste.[Friend, please help demand immediate action to address the plastic crisis before more innocent marine life is harmed >>]( [SIGN THE PETITION NOW]( Plastics never disappear and instead break down into tiny microplastics that contaminate our food, water, and air supply. But harm to our environment doesn’t stop there -- plastics are manufactured using high amounts of harmful fossil fuels, a primary driver for the imminent climate crisis. Meanwhile, profit-driven corporations continue to produce more and more plastics every day that are building up and accumulating in our environment and harming our planet. [We must STOP plastic pollution from destroying our health and ecosystems before it’s too late, so please add your name now >>]( [SIGN THE PETITION NOW]( Thanks for defending our planet from plastic pollution.
