Sea creatures eating plastic and turning into bigger threat

Researchers from Tel Aviv University found that marine creatures like ascidians can change the composition of microplastics, potentially increasing their impact on marine ecosystems. These creatures digest microplastics and excrete them as organic matter, making them more likely to be consumed by other marine life. The study highlights the complexities and dangers of microplastic pollution in the ocean.
