Week Three Bloggers!!!
As humans we are gifted the responsibility to protect the environment. And lets admit we aren't doing as well as well as we could be. Water makes up around 3/4 of our planet and guys, we are polluting it. There is a land mass out there in the atlantic made up of nothing but garbage. Its estimated to be about 90% plastice and about twice the size of Texas.
Its said that in some areas of this plastic mass that the plastic out numbers the amount of plankton in the water 6 to 1. Plankton is the main food source for many of the marine wildlife and we are infesting thier homes with our trash. Said trash contains plastics that are releasing pollutants into the water. The water not only affects the marine life but also us humans. The animals that consume these pollutants are then caught and fed to us. Therefore, the pollutants are not only harming the marine life and humans but thier entire food web. Humans are suffering disease and illness due to this garbage. I mean, how hard is it to recycle people? Common Guys, Really? The blue bins found just about everywhere, they're there so you can throw your trash away. Roughly 50 billion (yes I said BILLION) water bottles are thrown in U.S. landfils every year. Guys thas about 140 million A DAY!!! Thats enough to reach China and back and thats only water bottles.
