The long distance yoyage of plastic

 I read an article called The Long Distance Voyage of Plastic. This is an article about plastic which is thrown in the sea. Scientists have been collecting these plastic particles from the sea for 20 years.It's weird that they are collecting the same quantity of plastic these days as they used to collect 20 years ago, although much more plastic objects, such as bottles and bags, are consumed now. Scientists don't know where this plastic disappears. It may sink down to the bottom of the ocean or marine life eats it .

 My first reaction to this  article was anger, why do people throw plastic in the sea?! Why don't they recycle it? Plastic is bad for sea-creatures because they can be harmed by floating plastic objects. They can eat plastic, which is poisonous. Plastic is also bad for the sea itself because it gets dirty and it is a type of the worst pollution.
I hope someday  people will stop throwing plastic and other bad materials into the sea.
