Background: Six- Pack soda rings are causing many animals to die. What happens is when animals are hungry they look for almost anything to eat. Animals get tangled in the rings and sometimes choke. Or sometimes the plastic rings block their digestive system. They sometimes stay on their fins and limbs until something pulls it off.




Problem: Now people are continuously throwing their six-pack ring garbage in the water where hungry sea creatures swim. If say a turtle came up to try to find something to eat their fins or limbs could get caught in the rings. Also if they swallow it than it could choke them or block their digestive system.





Solution:   
1. Cut six pack soda rings so animals can digest them.
2. Throw away in garbage.
3. Encorage people to stop throwing them on the ground or on the water.
4. Always bring a small bag around to pick them up.
