Researchers studying baby fish off the coast of Hawaii announced a troubling discovery on Monday.
HuffPost reports minuscule plastic particles are clustering at the ocean’s surface.
The particles are mixing with critical sources of the hatchlings’ food.
Researchers found that in these important feeding areas, plastics outnumber baby fish 7 to 1.
Some of the larval fish are eating these particles, which scientists believe could hurt their chances of survival.
