(Harms to animals)

..

there is something wrong in this sentence :

plastic bags pose significant dangers to marine mammals, such as Leatherback sea turtles, — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.47.52.153 (talk) 15:57, 8 February 2014 (UTC)

   Besides that contrib having no sentences at all, turtles are not mammals.
   And while we have this opportunity to talk, let me mention that few of us are amused by riddles on the talk pages.

Kiting

   I removed this from the Plastic bag/Archives#Packages where it is off-topic, but there may be an appropriate place elsewhere in this article and/or a environmental-protection-related one, where it would fit if worded differently:

Oftentimes, children may attempt to use bags as a sort of makeshift kite. By tying string to the handles, they are able to successfully glide them, provided there is a gentle breeze, until they lose their grip or grow weary of holding them and simply let go, unaware of the fact that they are endangering animals' lives.
