Such an important statement. Have you ever seen the Washed Ashore exhibits of large marine life sculptures created entirely out of trash that was collected from beaches?
Yes, this is so true, as many daily conveniences are a significant threat to marine life, particularly due to plastic pollution. Single-use plastics like bottles, straws, and wrappers end up in the ocean, where they can be ingested by marine animals, entangle in fishing nets, or break down into microplastics that contaminate the food chain. Thanks for sharing, and have a good day 🙂 Aiva xx
I know we discovered how great plastic was to store EVERYTHING in… but at what a cost. It will still be here millions of years from now, if the planet makes it that long.
yikes – way too much plastic
