Zusammenfassung

Das Thema „Umweltverschmutzung durch den Menschen“, sei es durch CO2-Emissionen oder radioaktiven Atommüll, und wie man dieser entgegenwirken kann, gewinnt mehr und mehr an Bedeutung. Dabei spielt der Eintrag von Kunststoffen in die Umwelt eine ganz besondere Rolle. Kunststoffe sind nahezu überall in der Umwelt zu finden, selbst fernab menschlicher Zivilisation, und sie bauen sich innerhalb eines Menschenlebens nicht ab. Somit spüren wir selbst die Konsequenzen dieser Art Umweltverschmutzung am eigenen Leib und das Handlungsmotto vieler Bürger: „Aus den Augen aus dem Sinn“ fällt uns sprichwörtlich an den Stränden vor die Füße bzw. über das  Meersalz ins Essen.
