Someone shared a link with me to a short film. This film should be viewed by EVERYONE, please repost to help gain awareness. Before I say anything more, take a moment to watch the film. Click Here to view.
Ok, take a moment to gain your composure because if you're like me this broke my heart and made me ashamed of us, humans. 40% of the Laysan Albatross chicks die each year because they have been fed plastics that their parents picked up while searching for food. A study showed that 97.5% of all the Laysan Albatross chicks had plastic in their stomachs...97.5%! It is estimated that around the world 100,000 sea turtles and marine mammals as well as one million sea birds will die from eating plastics. That's astounding and unbelievably sad. We all need to go GREEN and take recycling serious.I know this is a bummer/downer post, but sometimes we need those as a wake-up call. My goal is to spread the word on how terrible our plastic water bottles, plastic shopping bags, etc. are for the environment and the animals that call it home. Please share and think twice before you use or dispose of something plastic. Thank you. Pass it on. If you have recycling, reusing, reducing tips...please share!
