This
novel 3-D animation dives into how our consumption of plastics has
affected marine species deaths and increased human health risks, and it
explores possible long-term solutions. Motion graphic artist Andreas Tanner uses
his compelling infographics to educate viewers on all aspects of
plastic production, consumption, and breakdown. “Due to particular
currents in the Pacific Ocean, a new continent has been born: a mass of
plastic waste the size of Europe.” Tanner also offers ideas for
alternative and sustainable buying habits to reduce our reliance on
plastic.
