With Americans' busy lifestyles, often the last thing on people's minds is how much garbage they produce. Few people realize the immense impacts their every day actions have on the environment, particularly marine life.

In addition, the manufacturing of plastic products produces enormous amounts of greenhouse gases and other air pollutants.
