Plastic in Our Oceans 46‚000 pieces of plastic per square mile make up 90% of our ocean’s trash accumulation (Nichol‚ 2012‚ Plastics‚ like Diamonds‚ are forever‚ para. 1). Within the areas‚ many animals will either ingest‚ become entangled in‚ or even die due to the high plastic amounts. Nearly 267 species are harmed by plastic (Nichol‚ 2012‚ Fast Facts).
