Abstract

Environmental pollution, especially marine pollution, is one of the most complex and threatening issues facing human beings today. Fighting chemical pollutants and substances that endanger the health of the Environment is one of the most important tasks and missions of today's society. The sea is one of the rich resources with special privileges to meet some of the human needs throughout history, so the preservation of its Environment and the living things that live in it play an important role in the continuation of human life. Pollution is the direct or indirect transfer or intrusion of materials or energy by humans into the Environment, resulting in harmful effects on the marine Environment by endangering biological resources, endangering human health, and creating barriers to marine activities. Fishing will damage the use of seawater and reduce recreational resources. In some places in the oceans, the number of these particles is even higher than the number of plankton, where the high levels of the oceans live. Fish also eat these plastic particles, and eventually their stomachs contain more plastic than plankton. Hence, fish die despite having a full stomach. At the same time, it is not only fish that are at risk of plastic particles in the seas, but these particles also endanger the life of seabirds. On the one hand, it is possible for birds to get stuck in plastic bags and suffocate, on the other hand, when these birds eat fish, plastic particles enter their bodies. Another problem with plastic bags is the lack of a proper way to dispose of them without having harmful consequences for the Environment.
