Simple answer to the question, How IS our diet effecting sea turtles?
All of the packaging from the unhealthy food we eat, the plastic rings around sugary soda, the fish we buy from places that aren't local, are effecting the turtles. The packages are ending up in their stomaches. The rings around their shells, and the nonlocal fisherman use fast, cheep methods that aren't turtle friendly. Get it?
