How are sea turtles affected by cigar buds

The topic I am doing is How does cigar buds effect the sea turtles in San Diego bay? Me and Amanda are working together to create a calender and awareness video about what happens to sea turtles when the plastic enters the ocean. We are planning on going Mission beach and The Birch Aquarium and interviewing different people and hear their opinions about it, while taking pictures of sea turtles and sea turtles that have been affected by the plastic debris in the ocean.
Some resources needed are camera gear to interview and take pictures, a recorder to do voice overs for certain people. Computers to put all our info together. We basically need people from the birch aquarium to interview and different people on the beach?

How long does it take for the turtle to get fully affected by plastic debris?
