Among the options provided, plastic pollution is currently having the greatest effect on the entire interconnected ocean ecosystem. Plastic pollution poses widespread threats to marine life, ecosystems, and human health due to its prevalence and persistence in the environment. It affects species at all levels of the food chain and contributes to habitat degradation. While other events like tsunamis, oil drilling, and hurricanes can have significant localized impacts, plastic pollution presents ongoing and widespread challenges across global marine ecosystems.
