Two Minutes on Oceans w/ Jim Toomey: Marine Litter

UNEP has partnered with syndicated cartoonist Jim Toomey to bring you this latest in a series of ocean videos, about litter in our ocean.

A lot of our trash ends up in the ocean - even trash discarded far upstream. Marine litter can travel hundreds of miles via rivers and waterways to even the most remote parts of the planet. It causes billions of dollars in damage, is a threat to sea life and even to human health.

The "Two Minutes on Oceans with Jim Toomey" video series uses animation and humor to explain complex scientific issues in simple terms to the general public. The series was produced as a partnership between nationally syndicated cartoonist, Jim Toomey, and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). Additional videos from the series can be viewed at: www.rona.unep.org/toomey
