Plastic Pollution
Despite the significance of industrial revelation in building the global economy, this
diversification has, however, increased environmental pollution and, most so, contamination of
ocean waters. According to Parker (2020), plastic waste disposal is among the world's highest

Salutation:
Oceans form a larger mass and occupy a larger area than the region that is occupied by land in the world. Additionally, the sheer size of oceans accommodates a larger number and diversity of species than would ever be accommodated on land. Evolutionary science points to the oceans as the source of early life, yet pollution and climate change is threatening the scope and survival of this state of diversity today and into the future.
The sheer size of oceans is now cumbered with floating plastic that is clogging out life from the landmasses. There are more than 300 million tons of plastic produced across the world every year (IUCN, 2018). 8 million of these makes its way into oceans and has now formed up to 80 percent of marine debris. The presence of such debris has devastating effects like a sore and actual adverse impact on the ability of ocean life to exist and thrive (Lang, 2018).
Today, there is a weighty burden in the amount of non-biodegradable material that is floating around in oceans. Currently, about a quarter a million tons of plastic are floating around the oceans in more than 5 trillion individual pieces (Eriksen et al., 2014). The pieces sometimes clog together and form a continuous sea of covering and waste that blocks out any other activity or forms of life that exist in a location.
The injuries, deaths and adverse effect on safety, quality and health are reason to intervene and find working solutions to the problem (Eriksson & Burton, 2003). Effort in policy would help to encourage recycling, reuse and other legally binding measures to mitigate the overall level of plastic pollution in the oceans. The impact of pollution is devastating in the way that it now threatens the sheer sanctity of life in the oceans. More is doable through efforts that focus on addressing the problem.

This handout will:
Define what citations are and when they should be used.
Explain the difference between quotes and paraphrasing or summarizing.
Explain what information does not need to be cited.
Show how to cite information in-text and on a work cited page based on discipline.
Review how to organize a work cited page.
In technical writing scientists communicate the general state of knowledge in a particular field. To
communicate this knowledge it is crucial to put your ideas in context with other academic works in a
variety of ways. From supporting or refuting data, to assisting in shaping your own ideas: any use of
non-original work, while a vital part of academic writing, must be cited. The exceptions to this are
when you are talking about your original work or analysis, or if you are referring to something that
qualifies as common knowledge.
What Are Citations?:
Citations help writers build credibility by allowing readers to trace and explore the data and ideas
utilized to their original sources. Additionally they are the most effective way to clearly demark that
you are not plagiarizing.
For this handout we will be working with an excerpt from the article “Seasonal Shrinkage of
Monterey Pine and Redwood Trees” by Ferdinand W. Haasis: It has for some time been a matter
of observation that Monterey pine trees growing at Carmel, California, show a notable increase in diameter in
the late fall or early winter months, apparently preceding the beginning of new spring growth
Quotes, Paraphrasing or Summarizing:
Quotations are when you directly copy words from an article.
If you wanted to quote the passage above, then you would simply copy it and put quotation
marks around it.
o Example: “It has for some time been a matter of observation that Monterey pine
trees growing at Carmel, California, show a notable increase in diameter in the late
fall or early winter months, apparently preceding the beginning of new spring
growth”
But what if you are putting the author’s ideas in your own words? Do you need to cite that? When
you want to put the author’s ideas into your own words it is called paraphrasing or summarizing and
it requires a citation. Why? Because despite the fact that you’re using your own language it is still the
author’s original idea.
Paraphrasing is typically used to sum up a sentence or paragraph. An example of
paraphrasing from the excerpt above could be: Monterey pines show a distinct increase in
diameter in the months before their new spring growth.
o This new sentence uses different words but it is still Haasis’ idea so it needs to have a
citation.

Summarizing is typically used to sum up an entire chapter, article, or book. An example of
summarizing for Haasis’ article could be: The diameter of Monterey pines are influenced by
external factors in the Carmel Valley.
o This new sentence uses different words but is still Haasis’ idea so it need to have a
citation.
When Not to Cite:
Citations are unnecessary when it is your original ideas or considered common knowledge (like
formulas).
How to Cite Information:
When citing information it must appear in two places in your paper: in your text and in a reference
list or work cited page at the end of your paper. This will ultimately be determined by the citation
style you are required to use based on the discipline you are writing for or your professor’s
preference.
In Text Citations:
Depending on the citation style you are using in text citations will appear in one of these forms:
As a parenthetical citation
o (Haasis, 1932)
By incorporating the author’s name in the sentence:
o When paraphrasing: Haasis notes that Monterey pines show a distinct increase in
diameter in the months before their new spring growth.
o When quoting: Scientist Ferdinand W. Haasis notes, “it has for some time been a matter of
observation that Monterey pine trees growing at Carmel, California, show a notable increase in
diameter in the late fall or early winter months, apparently preceding the beginning of new spring
growth”
With a number at the end of the sentence for footnotes, endnotes, or references. These are
formally known as superscript and can be inserted into your writing in a variety of word
processing programs.
o Monterey pines show a distinct increase in diameter in the months before their new
spring growth1
Citation Styles:
Science writing uses a variety of citation styles that can vary by discipline and journal so it is crucial
to ask your professor or the journal you are submitting to which style they prefer. Regardless of
which format you use, it is important to remain consistent in your citation style throughout your
writing.
APA: The American Psychological Association. APA is the citation style most commonly
used in science classes.
o In-Text Example:
(Author’s Last Name, Date of Publication)
o Bibliographical Examples:

Information you are providing.1
o Citation Organization systems: The Council of Science Editors (CSE) offers three
systems of documentation.
Citation-Name: In this system your sources are numbered alphabetically by
each author’s last name in the reference list at the end of your paper. In the
sentences of your paper, cite these sources using the number from the
reference list. This means that the in-text citation 1 refers to the first source
in your alphabetical list.
Citation-Sequence: In this variation of CSE your sources are numbered in the
order in your endnotes by the order in which they appear in your paper. This
means that the in-text citation 1 refers to the first source mentioned in your
text.
Name-Year: In this system sources are arranged alphabetically in the
reference list at the end of your paper. In the sentences of your paper, cite
these sources by giving the author’s last name and year of publication in
parentheses.
o Work Cited Examples:
Book: Author’ Last name, First initial. Title. Edition. Place of publication:

Organizing Your Work Cited Page:
Your “Work Cited” will be the last page of your paper and will contain all of your citations in a
bibliographical or endnote format. The citation style you are working with will determine if you are
using a bibliography or endnotes, also known as a reference list, and there are some differences in
how they are organized on a Work Cited page.
Endnotes:
o Endnotes are arranged by the order in which they appear in your paper and on your
Work Cited page they will be numbered in a way that correspond to the number
used in your in text citation.
Bibliography:
o In a bibliography your sources are arranged in alphabetical order by author’s last
name.
