Make a Notion, Save the Ocean
Some marine mammals such as whales and turtles assume that the plastic floating on the surface of the water is food. As a result, the ingested plastic cannot be digested and turns into microplastic in the mammalian's body. Furthermore, plastics are synthetic materials that take approximately 500 years to process biodegradation because they contain chemicals such as Phthalates, Bisphenol A (BPA) and Polybrominated. These substances are mostly found in the stomachs of fish and mammals that die as a result of plastic ingestion.
Therefore, the government itself must enforce the law and impose appropriate punishments and fines on people who take turtle eggs illegally as well as jointly protect the sea which is a turtle habitat from any pollution. Gazetting turtle spawning and breeding areas as protected areas is also one of the most effective ways to preserve this unique species. Whatever steps are taken and enforced by the government and the authorities will have no effect if the community does not cooperate. The community must work together to protect and appreciate the turtles in our country.
