We see beautiful beaches ; while sea life must suffer
Beaches and lakes are just some of the many things we enjoy water for. Being that summer is an important time in everyone's life between nice weather and no work, for some. When I found out that there was a so called " trash island " I was stunned to find out that the Earths largest landfill isn't even on land. According to Holly Bamford, director of NOAA's Marine Debris Program. Trash is spread throughout the ocean in little islands above and below the water , some reports state is is bigger than continents. Director Bamford states "... we just don't know... it could be bigger ." There are patches of this garbage, in a concentrated area. The biggest problem being PLASTIC, since it isn't biodegradable
These pictures really help to prove the point that we defiantly need to recycle. those poor animals who where here first getting hurt and suffering b/c of our waste, so sad. WE need to stop being SO anthropocentric.
