ALTERED OCEANS: A dead juvenile albatross rests in the sands of Midway Atoll where each year as many as 200,000 chicks – about 40% of the total on this island - die before they get a chance to take flight. Chicks are often inadvertently fed plastic bits by their parents which is likely to contribute to their deaths. More than 2 million birds nest on Midway Atoll’s cluster of islands every year.
