Stewardship Activities

Biomagnification Tag

Biomagnification refers to the concentration of a substance in the system of an organism at successively higher ranks in the food chain. As larger species like seals, sharks, and whales rely on fish for their food, there is a greater likelihood that the amount of plastic in their body will increase as plastic pollution in our oceans becomes more urgent. This activity will seek to show the dangers of biomagnification and why it is important to reduce plastic use.
