these microparticles are especially troublesome for ocean fauna and, as a result, for humans. it is why scientists are researching the effects of plastic waste on a variety of organisms. in the process, lars gutow discovered these iso-pods have fewer problems than many. this has to do with their specialized digestive systems. but a look at other creatures shows dramatic consequences. take gulls, for instance. scientists have examined the stomachs of dead gulls and found large pieces of plastic waste in them. some gulls simply starved to death. >> this waste accumulates in their stomachs and induces a feeling of fullness in the birds, so that they no longer feel hungry, and they stop eating. >> there are projects in which scientists, activists, and even fishermen collect ocean waste. but debris from fishing, such as nets that have been thrown overboard or lost in the water, is just part of the problem. most of the waste is not thrown into the ocean. it drifts there from the land. 80%, according to one estimate, is carried into the oceans by rivers and the wind. there are initia

kids basically didn't want to use pesticides or anything that could be harmful to the flora or the fauna, so we had to develop a natural way to do this, which really hasn't been done before. 'cause, essentially, what we do with recyclable bottles is we hang them from trees, and we basically create these havens for mosquitos to lay eggs, and then we capture their larvae. >> so, the students regularly visit the reservoir. it's an expedition that requires determination and protection -- lots of protection. but even with bug spray, they still get bites. >> here we have our mlcu's set up. they are mosquito-larva collection units. >> and what you do is you cut two openings on either side of the bottle so the mosquitos can go in and lay their eggs. then you wrap it in black tape to camouflage it so people won't mess with them or see them. and then, after you tape it, all you have to do is hang it up, and then, in a matter -- in a week or so, you'll have mosquito larvae. >> okay, so they have bottles filled with mosquito larvae. what then? back at the classroom, the students are raising fish cal
