HBO host Maher says plastics are killing humans, killing oceans and marine life

You'da thunk Bill Maher would have ended his show Friday night with reasons why the Dems lost the election, but he talked about something way more urgent ... we're all going to die because of plastics.

The 'Real Time' host laid it out in stark terms ... the oceans are dying because there really is a floating island of garbage -- actually more than one -- but it has nothing to do with the MSG insult comic.

There's a garbage patch, for example, in the Pacific 3 times the size of France, and a huge portion is made up of plastics. As Bill says, plastics are now in everything ... our soil, our foods, even our Kardashians
So check this out ... because plastics invade the soil, which produces grass, which animals graze on, and because plastics are polluting our oceans and end up in various sea life, the average person consumes the equivalent of a credit-card sized ration of plastics every week.

Even more ominous ... the oceans are simply dying because of plastics and other garbage, and we need the great blue sea to live, because the oceans provide 50% of our oxygen.

      Bill raises a critical point. plastics are a direct threat to our environment and our health, infiltrating every part of our ecosystems. The urgency to address plastic pollution is undeniable, given its harmful impact on marine life and even human food chains.

              The reality of plastic pollution is undeniable—it's choking ecosystems, poisoning wildlife, and even impacting human health in ways we’re just beginning to understand. It's time to confront the scale of the problem and rethink our reliance on plastic.

                  @princess_nel_268 Yeahh!!! Plastic pollution is a mounting crisis that’s devastating ecosystems, harming wildlife, and seeping into our lives with long-term health risks we’re only beginning to grasp. We need a bold shift away from plastic dependency.

                        @kelvin_thuranira_kaberia Our oceans are suffocating under a relentless tide of plastic and waste, and with them, our own lifeline is threatened—oceans generate half of the Earth’s oxygen, making their protection vital for our survival.

                          It’s encouraging to see public figures like Bill Maher using their platforms to speak out against plastic pollution.
